About this fabric

The swatch shows a tightly woven surface built from fine vertical and horizontal threads, creating a small crosshatch effect across the cloth. Its gunmetal tone sits between charcoal and softened grey, with a cool cast that reads quietly sophisticated rather than stark. Slight tonal variation across the weave keeps the dark shade from appearing uniform, while the close texture gives it a smart, composed character. No performance features are noted in the supplied information; visually, this is a versatile textile for upholstery or drapery.

How to use it

Pair this cool gunmetal grey with pale stone, chalky white or blue-grey accents to keep a room crisp, or use it against warm timber to bring balance to its cooler depth.

Use this cool gunmetal weave to add quiet depth to upholstery, curtains or cushions.

Pairs well with

Veranda 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.
