About this fabric

The soft greige ground has a quiet oatmeal cast, while fine ivory threads form irregular little loops and broken flecks across the surface. At 343gsm, this is a substantial woven cloth suited to upholstery and other structured applications. Its 31cm vertical and 32cm horizontal repeat keeps the scattered motif gently paced rather than strongly directional. The supplied 137cm usable width and 40m standard length provide practical details for planning upholstery cuts.

How to use it

Use this calm greige colourway on an occasional chair, headboard or sofa where its ivory flecks can soften darker wood and warm neutral schemes. The muted contrast works particularly well alongside natural linen, pale oak and chalky painted finishes.

A substantial greige woven ground with softly contrasting ivory flecks and looping lines.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Bibury Linen without fighting it. 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.
