About this fabric

The surface appears fine and even, with delicate vertical grain visible across the pale ground rather than a printed motif. The porcelain tone is cooler and cleaner than cream, reflecting light softly without looking stark. This colourway is catalogued as a Fabric; no further composition, width or performance specifications are supplied.

How to use it

Use Motion Porcelain where a room needs gentle brightness without the warmth of ivory: on a tailored chair, sofa cushions or relaxed curtains alongside pale timber, chalky walls and cool grey accents.

A clean, near-white textile that brings quiet brightness to upholstery, cushions or soft furnishings.

Pairs well with

Motion 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.
