About this fabric

The ground has a fine crosswoven texture, giving the silver-grey shade a softly variegated surface rather than a flat, uniform finish. White leaf-like edging forms repeating diamond-shaped panels, while the inset ovals shift between muted brown, olive and light silver tones. With a 313gsm weight and 136cm usable width, this is a substantial mid-weight fabric suited to both upholstery and drapery. The pattern repeats at 23.3cm vertically and 27.2cm horizontally, creating a clear but manageable geometric rhythm.

How to use it

Use Opus Silver to lighten a tailored chair, bench or curtain scheme where its cool grey ground can sit comfortably with white, chalk, stone and soft olive accents. The understated oval colour shifts also work well with muted timber and brushed metal.

A versatile silver-grey woven ground with a crisp white trellis and quietly varied oval accents.

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