Heritage Panama Pumice

Helix Fabric

Heritage Panama Pumice is a calm, low-contrast neutral with a dry, lightly textured look. The shade sits between pale stone and soft grey, giving it an understated, easy-to-live-with feel.

About this fabric

Woven in 100% cotton and supplied at 140cm wide, Heritage Panama Pumice has the practical, versatile handle expected of a mid-weight fabric. The surface reads as a fine panama-style weave, with a subtle grid-like texture rather than a printed pattern. Its colour is a muted pumice grey with a faint warm cast, so it feels softer than a stark mineral grey and less creamy than a beige. Because the repeat is n/a, the appeal here is the texture and the quiet tonality rather than any directional motif.

How to use it

Use this colourway on tailored blinds, relaxed curtains, or everyday upholstery where a soft neutral is needed without introducing strong contrast. It pairs particularly well with weathered oak, chalk white and deeper charcoal accents.

A quietly textured neutral that layers easily with timber, linen and darker accent tones.

Pairs well with

Heritage Panama Pumice 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.
