Nantucket Pebble is a very pale pebble taupe with a delicate, closely woven surface. In the swatch, the near-neutral tone is lifted by fine vertical texture and subtle tonal variation.

About this fabric

The fabric appears softly mottled rather than flat, with a fine micro-weave that creates gentle vertical movement across the surface. Its cool pale taupe colouring sits between light grey and warm stone, giving the swatch a quiet, understated depth. No performance features are noted for this fabric, so its appeal here is the restrained colour and tactile woven finish.

How to use it

Use Nantucket Pebble where a room needs a light stone-toned textile without stark white contrast; its fine texture would sit comfortably on relaxed upholstery or full-length curtains.

Use this softly textured pebble taupe to bring a light, quiet finish to upholstery, curtains or blinds.

Pairs well with

Nantucket Pebble 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.
