About this fabric

The design is arranged in vertical, curling columns, with repeated pointed foliage shapes tracing each pale grey-blue band. In this colourway, the taupe-brown ground has an earthy, gently shaded depth, while the cooler motif brings definition without a sharp contrast. Its softly textured, velvet-like appearance catches the light across the surface. Made from 88% polyester, 8% acrylic and 4% viscose, it is approximately 137cm wide and listed for curtains and fixed upholstery, with Contract and General Domestic grading.

How to use it

Use Dove on a statement armchair, banquette or full-length curtains where its warm taupe base can soften a room. Repeat the pale grey-blue detail in painted furniture, cushions or a cool neutral wall colour.

Pair the warm taupe ground with pale blue-grey accents for a quietly decorative scheme.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Helter Skelter Dove 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.
