Pure Ceiling Embroidery Dove

Pure Ceiling Embroidery Dove has a cool, pale dove-grey ground overlaid with delicate embroidered scrolls and floral tracery. The fine linework forms closely spaced vertical bands, while the light ground keeps the overall impression airy.

About this fabric

The visible embroidery combines curling foliage, small floral details and symmetrical ornamental motifs in soft grey against a near-white ground. At 166 gsm, this is a light fabric with a fine specification of 92 threads per cm, making its detailed surface especially suited to drapery. The design has a 46 cm vertical repeat and a 44.5 cm horizontal repeat, creating a clearly articulated rhythm across the cloth. Its 135 cm usable width and 30 m standard length are practical specifications for planning continuous curtain panels.

How to use it

Use the cool dove-grey tone with white, chalk and pale grey furnishings to emphasise the embroidery's delicate contrast. It would bring a quietly formal, light-catching finish to full-length curtains or softly gathered window treatments.

Use this cool, pale dove-grey embroidery for softly luminous curtains in a refined monochrome room.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Pure Ceiling Embroidery Dove without fighting it. 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.
