About this fabric

This substantial 625gsm textile is suited to upholstery, where its dense woven handle brings visual weight to seating and other structured pieces. The mineral grey colourway shifts gently between chalky grey and warm stone as the light catches the uneven threads, rather than reading as a flat solid. Its 141cm usable width is paired with a 67.5cm vertical repeat and 70.5cm horizontal repeat, giving the subtle woven pattern a measured scale. At 34.2 threads per centimetre, the close surface texture is visible without becoming busy.

How to use it

Use this cool mineral-grey neutral on a tailored sofa, armchair or headboard, then add warmer timber, aged brass or oatmeal textiles to balance its quiet stone-like cast. Its restrained texture also works well where a pale upholstery needs more depth than a plain cloth.

A cool, quietly textured neutral for upholstered seating, headboards and tailored occasional pieces.

Thistle Weave Mineral 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.
