About this fabric

The image shows a restrained grey colourway, leaning cool rather than warm, with a softly mottled surface that resembles fine stone or brushed pigment. Its close, lightly textured face catches the light unevenly, preventing the charcoal tone from reading as flat black. This fabric is catalogued as a textile, but no composition, width, rub test or performance specification has been supplied for this colourway.

How to use it

Use Ion Coast to bring depth to a cool neutral scheme, pairing its charcoal-grey tone with pale stone, chalky white or deeper graphite. Its understated surface is well suited to tailored seating, cushions or relaxed curtains where a plain fabric needs gentle visual movement.

Use this cool charcoal grey as a calm tonal base for upholstery or softly tailored drapery.

Pairs well with

Ion Coast 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.
