Minerva Vapour
Muscovy Fabric
Minerva Vapour presents a softly muted grey damask, with sweeping acanthus leaves and floral forms arranged in a richly scrolling repeat. Its tonal contrast gives the pattern definition while retaining a calm, misted appearance.

About this fabric
The image shows a cool vapour-grey ground overlaid with darker grey damask scrolls, curling leaves and clustered floral heads. The broad motifs have a softly textured surface, allowing the light to pick out the foliage without making the colourway feel high contrast. Its restrained, blue-leaning grey tone reads more atmospheric than warm, giving the traditional pattern a composed contemporary character. No composition, width, usage or rub-test specification has been supplied for this fabric.
How to use it
Use Minerva Vapour to bring quiet formality to a grey or blue-grey scheme, particularly on a classic armchair, tailored curtains or cushions where the scrolling foliage can be seen clearly. Pair it with chalky whites, smoke grey and aged silver for a cool, layered interior.
The cool grey palette and scrolling damask create a quietly formal look for upholstery, curtains or coordinated soft furnishings.

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