Boucle Silverbirch

Boucle Silverbirch is a pale greige textile with a cool, silvery cast. Its closely looped surface creates a softly irregular texture, while the coiled presentation shows the fabric's pliable, tactile character.

About this fabric

The colour reads as a gentle blend of silver-grey and warm stone rather than a flat white, with subtle tonal variation across the raised loops. Fine horizontal woven lines sit beneath the textured surface, giving the pale shade added depth when viewed closely. The softly nubby finish has a relaxed, tactile appearance suited to upholstered forms. No composition, width or performance figures are supplied for this colourway.

How to use it

Pair this cool greige boucle with chalky whites, pale oak and brushed metal for a light, quiet scheme, or use it to temper charcoal and deep taupe upholstery.

Use the cool pale greige tone to soften darker wood, stone and charcoal upholstery schemes.

Pairs well with

Boucle Silverbirch 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.
