About this fabric

This colourway reads as a light, understated grey, with cooler white threads and charcoal-grey flecks adding gentle depth rather than a flat solid finish. Its small-scale woven texture gives the surface a relaxed, quietly tactile character without a pronounced motif. The chenille is made from 84% polyester and 16% recycled cotton, with a 138cm width. It is graded for domestic upholstery, machine washable and carries Domestic Cig & Match flame retardancy.

How to use it

Use this pale flecked grey on a sofa, armchair or headboard where its softly varied surface can add texture without dominating the room. It works particularly well with chalky whites, pale timber, charcoal accents and muted blue-grey accessories.

A softly flecked pale grey chenille for relaxed domestic upholstery, pairing easily with both warm and cool neutrals.

Pairs well with

ALT4242 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.
