Veranda Herringbone Storm

Name: Veranda Herringbone Storm
Brand: Mark Alexander

Veranda Herringbone Storm presents a cool, deep grey ground with a tightly drawn herringbone pattern arranged in fine vertical bands. The close weave gives the swatch a quietly graphic surface, with subtle tonal variation where the light catches the diagonal ribs.

About this fabric

The colour reads as a stormy charcoal grey, softened by the alternating light and dark threads within the herringbone. Narrow columns of fine chevrons create a restrained vertical rhythm rather than a bold all-over motif, while the dense woven surface adds understated texture. Its balanced mid-weight appearance makes it suitable for both upholstery and drapery, and no performance features are noted in the supplied specification.

How to use it

Pair this cool storm-grey colourway with pale stone, chalky whites or smoked timber for a calm, tailored scheme. The vertical herringbone works particularly well on clean-lined seating, relaxed blinds or accent cushions where its subtle texture can be seen up close.

Use its cool grey depth to bring a tailored, quietly graphic texture to upholstery, curtains or cushions.

Veranda Herringbone Storm 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.
