Ashmore Dove

Heritage FabricCCF0239-04

Ashmore Dove combines a pale dove-grey ground with closely woven, broken chevrons that create a subtle herringbone-like movement across the cloth. Its softly mottled surface gives the cool neutral shade depth without making the pattern feel bold.

About this fabric

This substantial 536gsm textile is suited to upholstery, with a tactile woven construction that reads clearly in the close-up swatch. Fine grey and pale ivory threads form repeated V-shaped lines, while the small flecks within the weave soften the contrast and keep the pattern understated. The fabric has a 137cm usable width and a 95cm vertical pattern repeat, with a 35cm horizontal repeat for planning pattern placement. Ashmore Dove is supplied in a standard 40m length.

How to use it

Use the cool dove-grey tone on a tailored sofa, dining chair or headboard, pairing it with chalky whites, pale oak and brushed metal for a calm, contemporary scheme. The directional chevron also adds quiet structure to plain cushions and curtains in lighter neutrals.

Use this softly contrasting dove-grey chevron to bring tailored texture to sofas, headboards and occasional chairs.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Ashmore Dove 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.
