About this fabric

The image shows a tightly spaced design of tiny floral and diamond-like forms, worked in muted grey against a lighter warm-grey background. Its restrained contrast gives the colourway a misty, understated appearance rather than a crisp black-and-white effect. The surface looks finely woven and even, with the pattern creating gentle depth across the cloth. With no further specification data supplied, this fabric is presented here as a versatile textile suited to either upholstery or drapery.

How to use it

Use Soft Grey where a room needs pattern without strong colour: it would sit comfortably on a traditional chair, compact sofa or relaxed curtain against chalky whites, pale woods and cool stone tones. Its fine scale also makes it easy to layer with plain fabrics in deeper grey or soft taupe.

Its pale cool-grey ground and tiny woven motif keep the look quietly refined.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Ashfield II Soft Grey without fighting it. 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.
