About this fabric

The dense-looking surface is softly napped and finely flecked, shifting between pale grey and deeper blue-grey fibres rather than presenting as a flat solid. This cool colourway has a calm, slightly misted appearance, with the texture catching light in subtle changes across the face. It is catalogued as a Fabric, with no composition, width or performance specification supplied for this colourway.

How to use it

Use Spectrum - Water on an upholstered chair, sofa or headboard where its cool blue-grey tone can sit comfortably with soft whites, pale timber and deeper charcoal accents. Its understated texture also works well in a tonal scheme that needs more depth without a visible pattern.

Its cool blue-grey tone and softly brushed surface suit relaxed upholstered seating and calm, tonal interiors.

Spectrum - Water 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.
