About this fabric

The image shows a pale greige ground crossed by very fine grey vertical lines, creating a narrow ribbed effect rather than a bold stripe. This velvet has a 140 cm usable width, a 732 gsm weight and 86 threads per cm, giving the specification a substantial, closely made character. The pattern repeats every 1.5 cm vertically and 1 cm horizontally, matching the swatch’s tightly spaced linear texture. Supplied in a standard 30 m length, Karst Quartz is catalogued for upholstery.

How to use it

Use Karst Quartz on a tailored armchair, sofa or headboard where its pale warm-grey tone can soften darker timber and add discreet vertical definition. It also works well with chalky whites, stone shades and brushed metal accents.

Use this pale greige velvet to bring subtle linear texture and cool, tailored softness to upholstered seating.

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.
