About this fabric

The Byzantine colourway reads as a cool, muted taupe, sitting between light grey and natural hemp beige. A close, fine vertical texture is visible across the swatch, giving the otherwise plain surface a gentle linear depth. The even, mid-weight-looking cloth makes it suitable for either upholstery or drapery based on its visible handle and structure. No performance features are noted for this fabric.

How to use it

Use this pale stone-taupe shade to temper darker timber, warm white walls or aged brass, particularly on a relaxed armchair, headboard or full-length curtain. Its quiet vertical texture adds depth without introducing a separate pattern.

A quiet stone-taupe textile with a fine vertical texture, suited to calm upholstery and softly tailored drapery.

HEAVENLY HEMP - Byzantine 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.
