Carey Stone shows Irving’s striped design in a softly weathered neutral palette. The surface reads as woven and textural, with thin bands of stone beige, cream and muted blue-grey running across the cloth.

About this fabric

This fabric is woven with a gently rustic, multi-band stripe that feels refined rather than sharp, helped by the mix of 42% viscose, 32% cotton, 17% polyester, 7% linen and 2% acrylic. The 139cm approximate width makes it practical for upholstery or drapery projects, and the repeat is a useful V 33cm / H 9cm approx. In this colourway, the beige ground is lifted by pale blue-grey accents and fine tonal striations, giving the cloth a cool, chalky softness rather than a strong contrast. The overall effect is calm and tailored, with enough texture to add interest without overpowering a room.

How to use it

Use Carey Stone where you want a restrained stripe that still has movement: on upholstered seating, cushions or relaxed curtains in rooms with oak, plaster and pale stone finishes. Its cool-beige and blue-grey notes sit especially well beside natural linens, brushed metal and muted painted woodwork.

A quiet striped neutral that layers easily with pale timber, linen and weathered metals.

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