About this fabric

The design has an expressive, scratch-like appearance, with fine pale lines crossing over broken grey shapes and loosely botanical forms. Its white and cool grey palette reads light and silvery rather than warm or creamy, while the varied surface gives the colourway subtle depth. The fabric is catalogued as a Fabric in Dedar’s Fabrics collection; no composition, width or rub-test specification has been supplied for this colourway. The substantial-looking woven surface makes it particularly suited to upholstery applications where the irregular pattern can act as a quiet focal point.

How to use it

Pair Scratch White with soft grey, chalk and weathered timber for a calm, contemporary scheme. Its cool pale tone also works well against darker charcoal or natural brown accents, which bring out the broken pattern.

Use this pale, textural colourway on an upholstered chair or sofa where its lively surface can be appreciated.

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.
