About this fabric

The image shows an almost uniform shell ground, with only a restrained grain visible across the surface. Its low-contrast texture gives the colour a quiet depth without introducing a discernible motif or pattern. The supplied information includes no composition, width or rub-test data for this colourway. As a versatile-looking textile with an even, understated face, it can suit both upholstery and drapery applications where a calm pale neutral is wanted.

How to use it

Use Forenza Shell to lighten a room with pale upholstery, relaxed curtains or tonal layering. Its warm ivory cast works especially well beside natural timber, chalky walls and other soft cream shades.

A quietly warm shell neutral that brings a light, understated finish to upholstery or window treatments.

Pairs well with

Forenza Shell 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.
