About this fabric

The swatch reads as a cool, deep blue-grey, close to charcoal but softened by a restrained blue cast. Its compact, fine weave creates tiny horizontal irregularities and a low, even texture rather than a visible motif. The surface catches the light gently, giving the dark colour a subtly softened appearance. No performance features are noted in the supplied information.

How to use it

Use this cool blue-grey on a tailored sofa, headboard or relaxed Roman blind, where its charcoal depth can anchor lighter stone, chalk and pale timber tones. Its understated woven texture also works well alongside brushed metal and blue-grey painted cabinetry.

A cool, quietly tailored blue-grey woven texture for upholstery, curtains or blinds.

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.
