About this fabric
This colourway combines a muted mink-taupe ground with a subtle linear weave that catches the light gently across the surface. It is woven from 47% viscose, 33% cotton and 20% linen, with a 140 cm (55") width. The 2 cm vertical and 2.5 cm horizontal pattern repeats keep the texture very fine and discreet. Suitable for curtains, loose upholstery, fixed upholstery and bedspreads, it has a 45,000 Martindale rub test; professional dry cleaning is required.
How to use it
Use Astell Mink to bring a warm, softened neutral to a tailored sofa, headboard or full-length curtain. Its restrained woven texture pairs easily with deeper taupes, natural linens and darker timber.
A warm, finely textured neutral for tailored upholstery, curtains and bedspreads.

Pairs well with
Astell Mink 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.
