About this fabric

The design combines curling foliage, small floral forms and rounded ornamental motifs in light grey against the pale pebble ground visible here. Tonal variation gives the embroidery enough depth to reveal the scrolling pattern without making the colourway feel busy. The fabric weighs 385 gsm and has 31 threads per cm, giving this upholstery-suitable textile a substantial woven presence. Its pattern repeat measures 46.5 cm vertically by 45 cm horizontally, while the usable width is 135 cm.

How to use it

Use this cool pebble colourway on a traditional armchair, headboard or occasional sofa where its pale tonal pattern can bring softness without adding strong colour. Pair it with chalky whites, warm stone and muted grey accents to echo the restrained depth of the embroidery.

Use this cool pebble tone to soften traditional upholstery while retaining an elegant, tonal finish.

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.
