About this fabric

The fabric has a near-solid appearance, but the close weave reveals a delicate grain of lighter and darker threads rather than a completely flat colour. This colourway sits comfortably between warm grey and pale taupe, giving it a gentle, grounded depth without a strong pattern. It is catalogued as a Fabric in Dedar’s Fire-retardant collection. No additional performance features are noted for this specific fabric.

How to use it

Use this warm greige as a calm upholstery or drapery base alongside chalky whites, natural timber and darker taupe accents. Its subtle woven variation will add texture to a neutral room without introducing a visible motif.

A softly mottled greige weave that brings understated warmth to upholstery, curtains and layered neutral schemes.

Pairs well with

No Excuses Wall Caillou 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.
