About this fabric

This colourway shows a muted aqua thread worked through taupe, beige and pale sand stripes, with a gently aged look that keeps the pattern understated rather than crisp. The weave has visible texture and a lightly slubbed handle, which suits the fabric's mixed composition of 22% Linen, 22% Polyester, 22% Viscose, 19% Cotton, 12% Wool and 3% Polyamide. At approximately 139cm wide, it offers a practical width for upholstery and interior drapery, while the repeat measures V 24cm / H 7cm approx. The overall effect is smart and versatile, with enough colour variation to add interest without overwhelming a room.

How to use it

Use it on a tailored armchair, bench or roman blind where the aqua-taupe striping can read clearly. It pairs well with chalky neutrals, weathered wood and brushed metal finishes.

A muted stripe with a fresh aqua lift, ideal for tailored upholstery or elegant drapery.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Silas Aqua/Taupe 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.
