Laurie Silver

Irving FabricF4681-04

Laurie Silver is a softly speckled neutral with a gentle vertical stripe effect and a calm, lightly lustrous finish. The palette sits between silver, beige and stone, giving the swatch a cool-warm balance that feels refined rather than stark.

About this fabric

This colourway of Irving has a finely textured weave that reads almost like a small-scale basketcloth, with subtle vertical striations running through the surface. The blend of 38% linen, 30% viscose, 26% cotton and 6% polyester gives it a natural, slightly nubbly handle with a restrained sheen from the viscose. At approximately 138cm wide, it is a practical furnishing cloth with no pattern repeat to interrupt cutting or joining. The silver-beige tone feels fresh and understated, with tiny tonal shifts that add depth without making the fabric look busy.

How to use it

Use Laurie Silver to soften contemporary upholstery, loose covers or Roman blinds, especially where you want a pale neutral that still has texture. It pairs neatly with oak, brushed metal and chalky whites, and its cool-silver undertone keeps larger rooms feeling light.

A quietly luminous neutral that works beautifully on tailored upholstery or relaxed curtains.

Pairs well with

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