About this fabric

Woven in 100% silk, this Lucerne Silks fabric has no visible repeat and comes approx. 137cm wide, making the finish feel clean and continuous across a window. The pewter tone reads as a cool, muted grey with a faint warm undertone, lifted by the subtle slub and light-catching texture in the weave. It feels smooth rather than heavy, with just enough movement and natural irregularity to keep it from looking flat. The supplied care code is Q 8 + T 3, and the fabric is marked √BM for fire compliance.

How to use it

Use Ceres Pewter for softly structured curtains, interlinings and dress curtains where you want a refined grey that won’t dominate the room. It sits especially well with limestone, dove white and pale timber, and gives warmer schemes a cooler edge.

A refined neutral that works beautifully for tailored curtains and understated room schemes.

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.
