About this fabric

The soft grey ground is overlaid with narrow, uneven lines in a lighter tone, creating a delicate stripe effect rather than a rigid geometric pattern. The vertical threads vary gently in width and waviness, while the translucent-looking ground keeps the overall impression airy. This fine, sheer appearance makes the fabric suited to drapery, where its pale grey tone can temper daylight without making the window feel heavy. No performance features are noted for this fabric.

How to use it

Hang Edo Grey Mist as full-length curtains where its cool grey tone can soften bright daylight without warming the room. Pair it with chalky whites, pale stone and brushed silver for a quiet, contemporary scheme.

Use this cool, pale grey sheer for softly filtered curtains in calm, light-filled rooms.

Pairs well with

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