Grantown Cygnet

Grantown Cygnet presents a quiet, balanced plaid in pale grey, cream and charcoal-grey. The woven lines create a softly structured surface, with the light ground keeping the overall colourway airy rather than stark.

About this fabric

This fabric combines a pale grey and cream ground with broad charcoal-grey checks and finer intersecting lines. The pattern has a measured, medium-scale rhythm, while the layered threads give the darker bands a gently softened edge instead of a hard graphic finish. Its muted, cool-leaning palette reads calm and understated, with subtle tonal variation where the weave catches the light. As a fabric with no further performance specification supplied, it is best considered for applications suited to the textile’s visible mid-weight woven character.

How to use it

Use Grantown Cygnet to upholster a relaxed armchair or sofa where its soft grey-and-cream plaid can add definition without overwhelming a neutral room. It would also coordinate naturally with cream linens, pale woods and charcoal accents in curtains or layered furnishings.

A calm grey-and-cream plaid that brings quiet structure to upholstery, curtains and layered neutral schemes.

Grantown Cygnet 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.
