About this fabric

The subdued grey base carries a slight greened, birch-like cast, giving this colourway a calm and cool appearance rather than a warm beige tone. Its repeated oval outlines have softly irregular edges, adding a handmade quality to the otherwise orderly geometric pattern. Fine woven lines remain visible beneath the motif, lending gentle surface depth without making the design feel heavy. No performance features are noted in the supplied information.

How to use it

Pair this cool silvery-grey colourway with chalk white, pale timber and muted sage for a fresh, quietly layered room. Its low-contrast trellis is well suited to occasional upholstery, cushions or softly patterned window treatments.

Use this cool silvery-grey trellis to bring quiet pattern and soft contrast to upholstery or curtains.

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