About this fabric

The eggshell ground reads warm and gently light-catching, while fine pale lines build irregular rectangular and stepped forms across the surface. Its subtle relief creates a lightly woven appearance, with the geometry remaining delicate rather than bold. The calm tonal contrast keeps the pattern refined and easy to read at close range. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification for this colourway.

How to use it

Use this warm eggshell colourway to soften a tailored chair, headboard or full-length curtain while keeping the room light and composed. Pair it with chalky whites, natural timber and muted beige tones to echo its quiet linear texture.

A softly textured eggshell ground with understated linear geometry for calm, tailored upholstery or drapery.

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