About this fabric

The swatch shows an even, fine-grained weave in a muted grey taupe, balancing cool grey with a gentle beige warmth. Tiny woven intersections give the surface a restrained texture, while the subtle vertical variation adds depth without creating a pronounced motif. Catalogued as a Fabric in Dedar’s Curtain fabrics collection, its fine, light appearance makes it best suited to drapery rather than heavy upholstery. No performance features or further specification data are supplied for this colourway.

How to use it

Use Tempera Perla for full-length curtains where its soft grey-taupe tone can sit quietly against limestone, pale timber and warm white walls. The restrained vertical texture will add depth to a neutral room without introducing a strong pattern.

A fine grey-taupe weave for understated, softly tailored curtains.

Pairs well with

Tempera Perla 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.
