Tahiti Cendre is a softly mottled grey fabric with a calm, mineral look and a lightly slubby surface. Its fine horizontal striation gives the colourway a gentle movement without forming a visible pattern.

About this fabric

This colourway reads as a cool, muted cinder grey, broken up by tiny flecks and pale highlights that soften the overall effect. The surface has a dry, lightly nubbled handle in appearance, with fine horizontal lines that create subtle texture rather than a bold weave statement. From the supplied specification, Paros is woven in 100% Polyolefin and is approx. 142cm wide, with a straight pattern repeat of V 0cm / H 0cm approx., making it straightforward to work into a scheme. The Fire Code is K, and the care code a 8 9 u 3 is supplied for reference. Visually, it sits between concrete and seashell tones, giving the grey a restrained, coastal coolness.

How to use it

Use Tahiti Cendre on relaxed upholstery, cushions or simple drapery where its soft grey tone can keep a room feeling light but grounded. It pairs especially well with chalk whites, weathered oak and deeper graphite accents.

A quietly textured neutral that layers easily with linen, timber and deeper charcoal accents.

Pairs well with

Tahiti Cendre is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. 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.
