Savanna Dove

Plains & Semi Plains Fabric

Savanna Dove is a softly muted plain cotton with a gentle dove-taupe cast and a fine, even weave. Its surface reads calm and understated, with just enough texture to keep the colour from looking flat.

About this fabric

From the Plains & Semi Plains collection by Porter & Stone, this fabric is woven in 100% cotton and measures 140cm wide, with a pattern repeat of 0cm for an uncomplicated make-up. The weave is fine and closely worked, giving the cloth a smooth, tidy appearance that suits a tailored finish. In this colourway, the tone sits between grey and beige, with a cool, cloudy softness that feels more dove than stone. The overall effect is restrained and versatile, ideal when you want a neutral that still has a little depth and fibre character.

How to use it

Use Savanna Dove where you want a neutral with a cooler edge: it will sit comfortably on upholstery, cushions or simple curtains without dominating the room. Pair it with pale oak, chalk whites and deeper charcoal accents to bring out the subtle taupe-grey note.

A quiet neutral that works neatly across upholstery and relaxed curtains.

Pairs well with

Savanna Dove 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.
