Nuvole Sheer Incense is a softly translucent curtain fabric with a fine scalloped-arch pattern traced in muted taupe grey. In the photographed folds, the pale ground catches the daylight and the motif shifts gently between crisp and softened definition.

About this fabric

At 160 gsm, this sheer has a light, fluid appearance suited to drapery, with the outdoor light visibly filtering through its pale taupe-grey ground. Repeated overlapping arches create a small-scale geometric surface, while the warmer incense tone keeps the overall effect softer than a stark white or cool grey sheer. The pattern repeat measures 9 cm vertically by 11 cm horizontally, giving the cloth a fine, closely spaced rhythm across the folds. With a usable width of 287 cm and 76 threads per cm, it is specified for generous, continuous curtain drops with a delicately structured surface.

How to use it

Hang this incense colourway as full-height sheers in a light-filled room where its warm taupe-grey cast can soften strong daylight without obscuring the view. Pair it with chalky stone, pale timber and brushed metal for a calm, quietly tailored scheme.

Use this softly translucent taupe-grey sheer at full length to filter daylight while retaining the delicate scalloped rhythm.

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.
