About this fabric

This Fryett's Fabrics upholstery cloth is made from 100% polyester and measures 140cm wide, with a 0cm pattern repeat for straightforward cutting and matching. The surface reads as a fine, pebble-like texture rather than a flat solid, which softens the deep grey and adds quiet movement in the light. Soothe FR Slate sits in a cool, mid-to-dark slate tone that feels restrained and contemporary rather than harsh or blackened. With no pattern repeat to interrupt it, the fabric keeps its attention on the subtle grain of the weave and the uniform depth of colour.

How to use it

Use this slate grey on sofas, ottomans or dining chairs where a calm, tailored finish is needed. It pairs especially well with pale timber, crisp white and brushed metal accents for a clean, architectural look.

A cool, grounded grey that works well on tailored seating and clean-lined interior schemes.

Pairs well with

Soothe FR Slate 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.
