About this fabric

This colourway reads as a gentle cream with a beige undertone, lifted by the tiny nubbly weave visible across the surface. Made from 52% polyester and 48% cotton, it has the practical balance you want from a heavy domestic fabric, and its 40,000 Martindale rating supports everyday upholstery use. The back-coated finish is supplied to Cigarette & Match to BS5852, and after care is professional dry clean in situ. The overall effect is understated rather than stark, with a warm matte texture that will sit quietly alongside timber, linen and painted finishes.

How to use it

Use Paolo Pebble on sofas, headboards or armchairs where you want a soft neutral with more warmth than white. It pairs especially well with oak, taupe and muted greys, and brings a gentle brightness to north-facing rooms.

A versatile neutral that softens a room without feeling stark.

Pairs well with

Paolo Pebble 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.
