About this fabric

The swatch has an even, tightly woven face with a quiet salt-and-pepper effect rather than a visible printed motif. Its cool grey tone sits between silver and charcoal, with small variations in the yarn giving the surface gentle depth. The restrained colour and neat texture give this fabric a smart, tailored character suited to upholstery.

How to use it

Use Gobi Heather on a clean-lined sofa, occasional chair or headboard where its cool heathered grey can anchor pale neutrals, charcoal accents and brushed metal details.

The cool heathered grey and fine close weave suit tailored upholstery in calm, contemporary rooms.

Pairs well with

Gobi Heather 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.
