About this fabric

The 360 gsm cloth has a visibly substantial, tightly constructed surface, with 24 threads per cm creating a compact woven handle. Small, pebble-like motifs run across the design, forming a quiet textural pattern rather than a bold graphic statement. The pattern repeat measures 28 cm vertically by 35 cm horizontally, giving the weave enough rhythm to remain perceptible while retaining its restrained appearance. With a usable width of 140 cm, Castus Dove is a versatile choice for both upholstery and drapery.

How to use it

Use the cool dove-grey tone to lighten contemporary seating, dining chairs or headboards, especially alongside chalky whites, pale timber and brushed metal. It can also bring subtle surface interest to full-length curtains without introducing a strong competing colour.

Use this cool dove-grey weave to bring quiet texture and a refined, light-toned finish to upholstery or window treatments.

Castus Dove is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. Mixed across the houses we hold, which is the part a single supplier's book cannot do.

Paint that goes with it

Two ways to take the room. Both colours are from houses we hold, so a pot can come off the same order as the cloth. Screens shift colour, so treat these as a direction and bring the cloth to the shelf before you buy the paint.
