Shell

Santushti Carpet

Santushti Shell is a softly textured ivory textile with a calm, light-catching surface. Its close, irregular weave gives the pale colour gentle depth rather than a flat finish.

About this fabric

This swatch is catalogued as Carpet in the Santushti collection, with no performance features noted. The Shell colourway reads as warm ivory, with fine beige-grey tonal flecks that keep the pale ground from appearing stark. A dense field of tiny nubby loops creates a tactile, softly raised texture, while faint horizontal tracks add understated movement across the surface.

How to use it

Use Shell on a generously upholstered chair, headboard or sofa where its warm ivory tone can brighten the room without feeling clinical. Pair it with pale timber, chalky neutrals and softly contrasting beige textiles to draw out the woven tonal variation.

Use this warm ivory, nubby texture to soften contemporary upholstery and layered neutral schemes.

Shell 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.
