About this fabric

The swatch appears as a pale mist grey with a slightly cool, blue-leaning cast rather than a warm stone tone. Fine vertical and horizontal threads create a restrained crosswoven texture, while occasional slubby lines keep the surface from looking flat. With its visually versatile woven handle, this fabric is suited to both upholstery and drapery applications.

How to use it

Use Vintage Mist to soften a room with a light, airy grey foundation, pairing it with chalky whites, pale timber and cool stone. Its subtle woven texture also works well on a tailored chair or simple full-length curtains where the tonal variation can catch the light.

A cool mist-grey plain weave that brings quiet texture to upholstery, curtains and blinds.

Pairs well with

Vintage Mist is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. 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.
