Genoa Beige reads as a calm, softly glowing beige silk with a fine vertical rib visible across the surface. The colour is warm and muted, giving the cloth a restrained elegance rather than a bright, creamy finish.

About this fabric
Woven in 100% silk, Genoa Beige has a delicate, closely set vertical texture that gives the surface a subtle line and a gentle sheen. The repeat is very tight, at V 0cm / H 0.5cm approx, which supports the neat, orderly look visible in the swatch. At approx. 138cm wide, it is a versatile decorative silk for lined curtains or carefully considered upholstery pieces where a lighter, polished beige is desired. The tone sits between cream and sand, with enough warmth to feel inviting but enough restraint to remain smart.
How to use it
Use this beige silk to soften formal seating, roman blinds or interlined drapery, where its fine rib and quiet sheen will catch the light subtly. It pairs especially well with darker woods, parchment neutrals and warm metallic accents.
A refined warm beige silk that works beautifully on tailored upholstery or elegant curtains.

Pairs well with
Genoa Beige is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. 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.
