About this fabric

The woven ground shifts between cool steel grey and a subtle warm grey, giving the surface more depth than a flat solid. Narrow charcoal bands form a medium-scale windowpane grid, with gently irregular edges that reveal the textile construction. A fine, even grain is visible across the lighter checks, while the darker lines add crisp definition. The overall effect is composed and understated, with enough tonal contrast to read clearly on upholstered forms.

How to use it

Use this cool, softly muted steel-grey on a tailored armchair, sofa or dining seat, pairing it with charcoal accents and warm timber to balance its depth.

Use this tailored steel-grey check to bring quiet structure and texture to upholstered seating.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Sloane Square Steel 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.
