Girard Dove combines a pale dove-grey ground with softly contrasting ivory shapes arranged in an irregular, interlocking geometric pattern. Its light, finely textured appearance gives the colourway a calm, airy presence.

About this fabric

Across the pale ground, dove-grey bands and irregular ivory panels form a quiet geometric composition, with subtle warm beige-pink undertones in some of the lighter areas. The close, fine weave visible in the swatch creates a soft textile grain rather than a glossy finish. No composition, width, rub test or performance feature has been supplied for this fabric, so those details should be confirmed before ordering.

How to use it

Use this cool, softened grey with chalky whites, pale oak and warm ivory upholstery for a light contemporary scheme. Its low-contrast geometry would suit full-length curtains or relaxed Roman blinds where the pattern can read across a broad drop.

A light, quietly geometric colourway that brings cool dove grey and warm ivory together for airy curtains and blinds.

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