About this fabric

This fabric is catalogued as a fabric and is shown here in a restrained grey-green that sits between soft olive and charcoal grey. Fine, evenly spaced cords run vertically across the surface, creating a narrow-ribbed texture and subtle tonal variation as the light moves over it. The understated structure gives the colourway a composed, softly tailored appearance rather than a casual or highly decorative one.

How to use it

Use River on a clean-lined sofa, dining chair or headboard where its cool, earthy grey-green tone can anchor warmer timber, stone and muted neutral furnishings. Pair it with deeper olive or charcoal accents to draw out the fabric’s shaded vertical texture.

Cord Fr Crib 5 River 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.
