About this fabric

The light greige tone sits between warm stone and soft taupe, with a subtly flecked weave that gives the otherwise plain surface depth. Its 290gsm weight and 140cm useable width place it in a versatile mid-weight range for both upholstery and drapery. There is no pattern repeat vertically or horizontally, so the calm texture can be used without matching a design. The stated standard length is 40m.

How to use it

Pair this warm, softened greige with chalky whites, natural oak and darker taupe accents for a relaxed room scheme. Its unobtrusive weave also works well on generous curtains or lightly tailored seating where texture should replace pattern.

Use this softly warm greige weave on relaxed upholstery, cushions or full-length curtains where a quiet textured neutral is wanted.

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.
