Name: Bohemian Dove
Brand: J Brown
SKU: 136

Bohemian Dove is a soft, dove-grey plain with a gently textured surface and a calm, even tone. The weave reads subtle and tactile, with just enough variation to keep the colourway from feeling flat.

About this fabric

Part of J Brown’s Bohemian collection, this plain fabric is made from 100% polyester and specified for contract use. It carries a Martindale rating of 40,000 and is supplied back coated to Cigarette & Match to BS5852, with other treatments available on request. In this colourway, the grey sits in a cool, muted middle ground: lighter threads lift the surface while darker flecks and the open weave add depth. The result is a versatile neutral that feels neat and contemporary rather than stark.

How to use it

Use Bohemian Dove on banquettes, dining chairs or occasional seating where a restrained grey with visible texture will soften hard lines. It also pairs well with oak, black metal and chalky off-whites for a calm contract scheme.

A quietly tailored neutral for contract seating and clean-lined schemes.

Pairs well with

Bohemian Dove 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.
