Maya Silverbirch combines a softly silvery grey-green ground with a pale, branching pattern that moves vertically across the cloth. Its restrained contrast gives the colourway a cool, quietly textured character.

About this fabric

The woven ground is a muted silverbirch tone, sitting between soft grey, sage and warm stone, while the lighter embroidery traces irregular chevrons and looping branch-like forms. These motifs create a medium-scale rhythm with gentle variation rather than a sharply graphic effect. The surface appears even and tactile, with the pale threads catching the light against the more subdued ground. This colourway is catalogued as a fabric; no composition, width, rub test or performance specification has been supplied.

How to use it

Use the cool silvery sage tone to soften a contemporary sofa, occasional chair or full-length curtain, pairing it with chalky whites, pale timber and brushed metal. The pale branching pattern works especially well where a room needs movement without a strong contrast.

A cool, quietly patterned textile that brings subtle movement to upholstery or window treatments.

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