About this fabric
The colour reads as a balanced Swedish grey, leaning towards charcoal rather than silver, with a muted depth that keeps the surface quietly atmospheric. Fine horizontal lines run across the swatch, giving the fabric a tactile, lightly brushed appearance without introducing a formal motif. The restrained pattern scale and substantial-looking weave make this colourway particularly convincing on tailored upholstery, where its tonal variation can be seen across broad surfaces. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification for this fabric.
How to use it
Use Orion Swedish Grey on a contemporary sofa, headboard or occasional chair where its cool charcoal tone can anchor pale timber, chalky walls and brushed metal. Pair it with softer grey textiles to bring out the swatch’s fine horizontal texture without competing with it.
A cool charcoal-grey textile with fine horizontal texture, well suited to tailored upholstery and contemporary seating.

Pairs well with
Orion Swedish Grey 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.
