About this fabric

This Fabric from Fryett's Fabrics measures 140cm wide and has a 7.9cm pattern repeat, making the small-scale motif easy to place across seats, cushions or curtains. The cloth is composed of 51% Poly, 41% Cotton and 8% Linen, which gives the surface a lightly textured, matt look rather than a shiny finish. In this colourway, the dove-grey background feels cool and understated while the deeper motif adds just enough definition to keep the pattern visible from a distance. The repeated teardrop-damask shape gives it a classic decorative character, but the muted tones keep it firmly modern and versatile.

How to use it

Use Ravel Dove where you want pattern without visual noise: on an armchair, bench seat or relaxed curtains. Its pale grey palette sits neatly with white walls, weathered oak and charcoal accents.

A refined neutral with enough pattern to lift upholstery or curtains without dominating the room.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Ravel Dove 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.
