Smooth Mallard
Smooth Iii Fabric
Smooth Mallard is a deep, cool teal with the subdued character of dark mallard plumage. Its plain surface has a soft, finely mottled texture that gives the colour gentle depth rather than a flat, high-shine finish.

About this fabric
This is a solid teal fabric, with the blue-green shade reading deepest through the centre of the swatch and lifting slightly where the surface catches the light. The close, quiet texture is visible across the plain face, adding subtle tonal movement without a woven motif or printed pattern. The listing catalogues Smooth Mallard as a fabric, with no further composition, width or performance specification supplied. Its concentrated colour and restrained surface make it particularly suited to tailored upholstery where a calm, enveloping tone is wanted.
How to use it
Use Smooth Mallard on a compact sofa, armchair or dining seat to introduce a cool, saturated blue-green accent. Pair it with warm timber, aged brass and soft neutrals to balance the shade’s depth without competing with its understated texture.
Use this deep, cool teal to bring quiet colour and depth to upholstered seating.

Pairs well with
Smooth Mallard 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.
