Soft Tweed Cenere

Name: Soft Tweed Cenere

Soft Tweed Cenere combines an ash-grey ground with closely spaced herringbone lines, creating a softly mottled surface with quiet depth. Its warm charcoal and taupe-brown flecks become more noticeable where the light catches the pile.

About this fabric

The image shows a dense chenille-style tweed woven in narrow, repeating herringbone lines, with ash grey, charcoal and muted taupe-brown tones intermingling across the surface. The subtle contrast gives this colourway a grounded, gently warm character rather than a flat silver-grey appearance. Its visible weight and compact weave make it best suited to upholstery, while the supplied catalogue records no performance features or further technical specifications.

How to use it

Use this muted ash-grey colourway on a tailored armchair, sofa or dining seat, pairing it with warm timber, aged metal and soft stone shades. The fine herringbone adds texture without competing with patterned cushions or stronger accent colours.

A dense ash-grey tweed with fine herringbone movement for tailored upholstery.

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.
