About this fabric

Woven in 100% cotton, Arlo Chalk has a flat, even handle and no visible pattern repeat, giving it a clean, understated finish. The 148cm approximate width makes it practical for a range of interior projects, while the C 8 + T 3 care code and √BM fire code add useful specification detail. Visually, this swatch sits between ivory and very pale stone, with a gentle warmth that softens the brightness and keeps it from reading stark. The surface catches the light softly rather than reflecting it, so the colour feels calm and natural.

How to use it

Use Arlo Chalk where you want a pale foundation that won’t fight with timber, rattan or painted joinery. It would bring a fresh, airy note to upholstered seating or simple curtains in light-filled rooms.

A clean chalky neutral that feels calm and versatile across upholstery and curtains.

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.
