Mimosa Dove is a soft, dove-grey plain with a gently mottled surface that gives the cloth a quiet depth. The finish reads cool and understated, with a subtle woven texture that lifts the colour without making it busy.

About this fabric

Part of the Mimosa collection by J Brown, this plain fabric is made from 100% polyester and is suitable for heavy domestic use. It has a Martindale rating of 40,000, making it a practical choice for everyday seating that needs to stand up well to regular wear. In this colourway, the grey sits in a pale stone-dove range, with a slightly variegated look that softens the surface and keeps it from feeling flat. Supplied back coated to Cigarette & Match to BS5852, it can also be professionally dry cleaned in situ, with other treatments available on request.

How to use it

Use Mimosa Dove on sofas, chairs or banquettes where you want a restrained grey that still has a little surface movement. Its cool, muted tone works especially well with pale oak, chalky whites and deeper charcoal accents.

A calm neutral for tailored seating, softened by the fabric’s lightly textured surface.

Pairs well with

Mimosa 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.
