About this fabric
Kensington Elephant from the Brodsworth collection by Fryett's Fabrics is a 100% polyester fabric with a 140cm width and a 0cm pattern repeat. The weave reads as a fine, horizontal striation, giving the surface gentle movement without any obvious pattern. This colourway sits in a cool grey range with a soft blue cast and a slightly heathered finish that catches the light in delicate flecks. It has a smart, understated look that feels crisp but not severe, and the NQT1 care guidance makes it straightforward for everyday use.
How to use it
Use this slate grey alongside pale oak, graphite, or soft white for a tailored scheme with a modern edge. Its subdued depth also works well as a grounding neutral in layered textural interiors.
A versatile slate tone that works cleanly on upholstery or relaxed curtains.

Pairs well with
Kensington Elephant 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.
