About this fabric

The close-up shows a light taupe-grey tone, balanced between warm beige and cool grey, with subtle tonal variation across the velvet surface. Made from 100% polyester, this 138cm-wide fabric is classified as Contract upholstery grade and is machine washable. Domestic Cig & Match GreenFR® flame retardancy is available, with treatment possible to contract grade. The fine pile creates a restrained sheen rather than a high-gloss finish, keeping this colourway quietly sophisticated.

How to use it

Use this pale taupe-grey on a tailored sofa, occasional chair or headboard where its soft, silvery shading can sit alongside chalky whites, warm timber and muted stone tones. It also works well as a calm neutral against darker grey or charcoal accents.

Its softly mottled taupe-grey pile brings a quiet, tailored finish to upholstered seating and headboards.

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.
