Alto FabricALT4240

ALT4240 reads as a cool, misted blue-grey, with fine slate and silver flecks woven across its compact chenille surface. The close texture gives the colourway a softly mottled, quietly dimensional appearance.

About this fabric

ALT4240 has a compact chenille surface built from tiny interwoven marks rather than a printed motif. Its cool blue-grey ground shifts between misty silver and deeper slate flecks, giving the swatch gentle depth without a bold pattern. The fabric is 138cm wide and made from 84% polyester and 16% recycled cotton. Rated Domestic for upholstery, it is machine washable and carries Domestic Cig & Match flame retardancy.

How to use it

Use this cool blue-grey on a sofa, armchair or dining seat where its small-scale woven texture can add interest without dominating the room. Pair it with pale timber, chalky neutrals and brushed metal for a calm, contemporary scheme.

Use the cool blue-grey tone to bring quiet definition to contemporary upholstery.

Pairs well with

ALT4240 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.
