About this fabric

As part of Cormar’s Pembroke collection, Anvil is catalogued as a Wool Twist carpet. Its dense, short-textured face has a dry, grainy appearance, while the small tonal flecks soften the otherwise dark taupe-grey colour. The shade sits between warm grey and muted brown, giving it a grounded, quietly architectural feel. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification.

How to use it

Use Anvil’s deep taupe-grey tone to anchor rooms with pale stone, chalky plaster or warm timber, where its fine flecking can add depth without introducing a strong motif. It also suits a restrained, tailored scheme built around charcoal, mushroom and softened black.

A dense, softly flecked taupe-grey ground with a quiet, tailored character suited to understated interiors.

Pairs well with

Anvil 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.
