M670 Gunmetal

M670 Gunmetal has a cool, softened gunmetal tone that reads between taupe and grey. Its close, even weave creates a delicate gridded texture, while faint vertical shifts in colour give the surface depth.

About this fabric

The image shows a tightly woven textile with a small-scale check-like grid formed by the interlacing threads. Gunmetal is muted rather than stark, combining grey depth with a gentle taupe warmth that keeps the colour approachable. Subtle vertical tonal variation breaks up the uniformity and becomes more visible across the surface. The fine weave gives the fabric a composed, understated character rather than a bold decorative effect.

How to use it

Use this cool taupe-grey colourway where a room needs depth without strong contrast: it would sit comfortably on a tailored armchair, sofa, Roman blind or full-length curtain. Pair it with warm timber and ivory, or sharpen the gunmetal tone with charcoal and aged metal accents.

A versatile, finely woven taupe-grey textile that brings quiet texture to upholstery, cushions, curtains and blinds.

Pairs well with

M670 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.
