Tristram Silver shows a fine, all-over herringbone effect in a cool, softly muted silver grey. The surface reads understated and textural rather than bold, with the tiny zigzag weave visible across the whole swatch.

About this fabric

This Fabric has a compact woven face with a small repeating herringbone/chevron character, giving it a neat and tailored look. The colourway is a pale silver grey with a slightly heathered, mineral cast, softened by the 25% linen, 22% cotton and 21% viscose in the blend. At approximately 143cm wide, it is presented as a versatile fabric suitable for either upholstery or drapery, and the addition of wool and polyamide helps the cloth feel more substantial and durable. The repeat is very restrained at V 0cm / H 1cm approx, so the pattern reads as a fine texture rather than a strong motif.

How to use it

Use Tristram Silver on an armchair, bench or pared-back curtains where its cool grey tone can sit quietly against oak, limestone or painted woodwork. It works especially well in calm schemes that need texture without adding obvious contrast.

A quiet silver tone that suits tailored upholstery and refined curtains alike.

Pairs well with

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