About this fabric

The image shows an even, fine weave in a muted taupe-grey tone, with tiny tonal variations creating a subtly heathered appearance. The colour sits between warm stone and cool grey, making it feel restrained and balanced rather than strongly beige or silver. Light catches the small woven fibres irregularly, adding quiet texture across the plain surface. No performance features or further specification data are noted for this fabric.

How to use it

Use this colourway where a room needs a calm, mineral-toned foundation: it pairs naturally with warm timber, soft cream and charcoal accents. The grey within the taupe helps it coordinate with cooler neutrals without losing its gentle warmth.

A quietly nuanced taupe-grey woven texture for coordinated upholstery, cushions, curtains or blinds.

Pairs well with

1116/07 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.
