Teddy Aluminium

Teddy Fabric

Teddy Aluminium is a pale, cool grey textile with a finely nubby surface that gives the plain colour gentle visual movement. Its softly mottled finish reads quiet and contemporary rather than stark.

About this fabric

The close-up image shows a dense, teddy-like texture made up of tiny loops and irregular grey flecks, with no separate motif or directional pattern visible. Its aluminium tone sits between silver and soft mid-grey, retaining a cool cast while the raised surface adds subtle depth. This colourway is catalogued as a fabric, and no performance features are noted in the supplied specification. The tactile, substantial-looking weave makes it particularly suited to upholstered pieces where the surface texture can be seen at close range.

How to use it

Pair Teddy Aluminium with chalk white, pale timber and brushed metal for a cool, pared-back room, or warm it with oat, sand and natural wool. On a sofa or occasional chair, its softly flecked grey texture adds interest without introducing a strong pattern.

Use this softly flecked cool grey to bring understated texture to contemporary upholstery.

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.
