Foundation Gunmetal
Timeless Textures Fabric
Foundation Gunmetal is a deep grey textile with a closely woven, tactile surface. Its finely crosshatched structure gives the shade subtle variation rather than a flat, uniform finish.

About this fabric
The colour reads as a muted gunmetal grey, with a slight warmth in the darker threads and a soft lift where the lighter yarns catch the light. A compact plain weave creates the visible vertical and horizontal texture across the surface, while the absence of a printed motif keeps the appearance restrained. The dense-looking construction gives this fabric a structured presence suitable for both upholstery and drapery. No composition, width, rub-test or performance data has been supplied for this fabric.
How to use it
Use the deep gunmetal tone to give an armchair, headboard or full-length curtain a quietly architectural feel. Its subtle woven variation pairs naturally with pale stone, warm timber and other soft grey tones.
A dense, finely textured gunmetal-grey weave that can bring quiet depth to upholstery, curtains or blinds.

Pairs well with
Foundation Gunmetal 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.
