About this fabric

The close-up shows a fine velvet surface with delicate tonal variation rather than a defined printed motif, giving the pale greige colour a softly textured depth. Light catches the pile subtly, keeping the overall appearance calm and lightly luminous. Made from 100% polyester and supplied at 138cm wide, this fabric is rated for domestic upholstery and is machine washable. Its flame retardancy is Domestic Cig & Match, with treatment available to achieve Crib 5 contract grade.

How to use it

Use this pale greige colourway on a domestic sofa, headboard or occasional chair where its gentle ivory-grey tone can soften darker timber, stone and muted metallic finishes. Pair it with chalky whites and warm taupes for a quiet neutral room, or use it as a light counterpoint to deeper upholstery.

A softly mottled pale greige velvet for light, understated upholstery schemes.

Pairs well with

DES3042 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.
