Genoa Grey
Genoa FabricF4136-06
Genoa Grey reads as a soft warm grey silk with a fine, quietly ribbed surface and a gentle sheen. The colour sits light and understated, with just enough depth to feel polished rather than flat.

About this fabric
Woven in 100% silk, Genoa Grey has a delicate, closely worked texture that catches the light in narrow vertical lines. The repeat is very small at V 0cm / H 0.5cm approx, giving the surface a restrained striated effect rather than a bold pattern. At 138cm approx wide, it is a refined cloth for tailored drapery, and the silk content gives this grey a pale, luminous finish with a subtle warmth. Care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code √BM are supplied for this exact fabric.
How to use it
Use this shade where you want a quieter grey with a silk glow, such as interlined curtains, Roman blinds, or pared-back upholstery on a formal chair. It sits especially well with chalk white, pale oak, and deeper charcoal accents.
A refined silk with a calm, softly luminous finish for elegant curtains or light upholstery accents.

Pairs well with
Genoa Grey 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.
