About this fabric

Woven in 100% cotton, this Portland fabric has a usable width of 137cm and a 35cm pattern repeat across the vertical stripe layout. The colourway reads as a cool, muted grey with a gentle linen-like slub in the ground, softened further by the narrow pale stripes that break up the surface. It is rated Heavy Domestic with a 30,000 Martindale rub test, making it suitable for upholstery as well as drapery and accessories. Colour fastness is 5 and pilling is 4, and it can be treated for FR drapery and upholstery if required.

How to use it

Use this flint stripe on a blind, relaxed curtains, or a smart upholstered armchair where the vertical pattern can elongate the silhouette. Its restrained grey tone pairs neatly with chalk whites, smoked oak, and deeper navy or green accents.

A refined grey stripe that works cleanly across tailored upholstery and curtains.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Portland Waterbury Flint Flat without fighting it. 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.
