Stroke Vintage Rose

Name: Stroke Vintage Rose
Brand: Kirkby Design

Stroke Vintage Rose is a close, tactile view of dusty pink: the surface looks softly raised and almost brushed, with a gently broken direction through the nap. Its muted rose tone stays warm and powdery, while uneven texture creates subtle shifts in depth.

About this fabric

Stroke has a dense, raised surface with a softly napped appearance that gives the fabric a substantial, tactile presence. In this Vintage Rose colourway, the pink is muted and warm, sitting between dusty blush and antique rose rather than reading bright or sugary. The close view shows an irregular, softly striated nap, with small changes in height creating gentle shadow across the surface. No performance features or further specification data are noted for this fabric.

How to use it

Use this warm, muted rose on an upholstered chair, headboard or footstool where its plush texture can be appreciated at close range. Pair it with chalky neutrals, aged timber and other softened pinks to retain its powdery, vintage character.

A warm, tactile rose for relaxed upholstered pieces and softly layered rooms.

Stroke Vintage Rose 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.
