About this fabric

The swatch is a porcelain-toned off-white with fine, closely spaced vertical cords; the ridges create delicate grey-white shadow lines as the cloth bends. This lightly dimensional rib gives the otherwise pale surface a quiet linear rhythm rather than a bold pattern. The clean tone and visibly structured weave make it suited to tailored upholstery, including seating where a restrained texture is preferred. No further specification data is supplied for this exact fabric, so composition, width and test results are not stated here.

How to use it

Use this porcelain colourway on a tailored chair, sofa or headboard where its soft off-white tone can brighten the form without looking completely flat. Pair it with cool grey, chalk or pale timber accents to echo the subtle shadowing in the vertical ribs.

Use this softly ribbed porcelain shade to bring a clean, tailored finish to upholstered seating.

Cord Fr Crib 5 Porcelain 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.
