About this fabric

The colour reads as a cool, softened grey with a faint greened cast, rather than a bright or stark silver. A fine woven texture creates subtle tonal variation across the otherwise plain surface, giving the ash shade a little depth without introducing a visible motif. The even, mid-weight-looking cloth is versatile enough to consider for upholstered pieces, curtains or blinds. No performance features are noted in the supplied information.

How to use it

Use Osumi Ash where a room needs a restrained, cool neutral: it would sit neatly on a contemporary armchair or sofa, or provide softly textured drapery alongside pale woods, stone and muted greens.

A quietly textured ash-grey plain weave that brings a cool, understated finish to upholstery or drapery.

Pairs well with

Osumi Ash 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.
