Steppe Grey Mist

Name: Steppe Grey Mist
Brand: Mark Alexander

Steppe Grey Mist has a pale, cool-grey appearance with a softly mottled surface that shifts subtly across the swatch. Its close weave gives the colour a quiet depth rather than a flat, uniform finish.

About this fabric

The finely woven surface combines misty grey and lighter threads in a restrained, irregular texture visible across the whole cloth. The tonal variation is delicate, with the pale ground appearing slightly brighter where the light catches the weave. This textile is suitable for upholstery or drapery based on its versatile woven appearance. No performance features are noted for this fabric.

How to use it

Pair this cool mist-grey colourway with chalky whites, pale timber and brushed metal for an airy room, or use it to temper deeper charcoal and blue-grey accents. Its softly flecked texture adds quiet depth to upholstered seating and simple curtains.

Use this cool, pale grey weave to soften upholstery or frame windows in a calm, quietly layered scheme.

Steppe Grey 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.
