Bordeaux Plain Chalk

Name: Bordeaux Plain Chalk
Brand: Fryett's Fabrics

Bordeaux Plain Chalk shows a softly raised damask pattern in a very pale chalk cream. The design reads quietly tonal, with the texture coming forward more than the colour.

About this fabric

Woven in 100% BCI Cotton, this fabric has a 138cm width and a generous 38cm vertical by 71cm horizontal repeat. The surface appears matte and lightly textured, with the damask motif picked out in a shade just a touch warmer than white. In this colourway, the pattern is deliberately understated, so the swirls and floral flourishes only reveal themselves as the light moves across the cloth. It feels clean and refined rather than decorative-heavy, making the texture the main feature.

How to use it

Use this chalk tone to soften tailored upholstery or to give drapery a calm, layered look without adding visual weight. It works especially well in rooms that need brightness but still want the interest of a traditional damask.

A restrained chalky cream that lets the raised damask texture do the talking.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Bordeaux Plain Chalk without fighting it. 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.
