About this fabric
The small chevron-like weave creates a compact, tactile surface rather than a flat plain, giving this colourway gentle visual depth. Its muted Shale tone sits between taupe, mushroom and soft grey, with darker threads defining the close herringbone pattern. The dense-looking weave makes it best suited to upholstery, particularly on seating where texture can carry the design without introducing a strong colour statement. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification, so none are claimed here.
How to use it
Pair Kintail - Shale with warm timber, aged metal and chalky neutrals for a calm, tailored room. Its cool taupe-grey depth also works well alongside charcoal, oatmeal and softly weathered brown.
Use this softly mottled taupe-grey upholstery to bring quiet texture and understated depth to seating.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Kintail - Shale 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.
