Manhattan Grey

Misc Fabric

Manhattan Grey has a cool, stone-grey look with a soft, broken texture that gives the surface plenty of movement. The repeating oval motif reads quietly graphic rather than bold.

About this fabric

This Fryett's Fabrics design is woven in 100% polyester and has a 140cm width, with a 26.5cm pattern repeat and care code AQV1<. The colourway combines pale mushroom-grey ovals with a slightly deeper greige ground, creating a low-contrast finish that feels calm and controlled. The texture appears nubby and lightly speckled, so the pattern catches the light without looking shiny. Its balanced mid-weight feel makes it suitable for both upholstery and drapery where a tailored, contemporary look is wanted.

How to use it

Use Manhattan Grey to soften modern upholstery, or hang it at the window where the cool grey tones will add depth without darkening the room. It pairs neatly with pale timber, chalk whites and charcoal accents.

A versatile grey with a subtle woven texture that works beautifully across upholstery and curtains.

Pairs well with

Manhattan Grey 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.
