About this fabric

The fabric shows a closely woven surface in pale dove grey, with subtle off-white and slightly deeper grey areas moving through the image. Broad, softly blended tonal bands create gentle variation rather than a defined motif, while the fine weave keeps the appearance composed and understated. Light catches the raised threads unevenly, giving the otherwise muted shade a restrained sense of dimension. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification.

How to use it

Use this cool dove-grey colourway to soften a light, contemporary room, pairing it with chalky whites, pale timber and brushed metal. Its quiet tonal depth also works well on a tailored chair or relaxed curtains where texture can do the visual work.

Its cool dove-grey tone and softly shifting woven bands bring quiet depth to upholstery, cushions or curtains.

Serrano Elba Dove 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.
