Kensey Tweed

Name: Kensey Tweed
Brand: Romo

Kensey Tweed has a cool silver-grey appearance with a tightly packed, fine-scale weave. Its softly mottled surface gives the colour gentle depth rather than a flat, uniform finish.

About this fabric

The close-up shows a dense tweed-like construction made from tiny interlaced marks in silver grey and darker grey, creating a restrained two-tone effect. The surface reads matte and tactile, with the fine weave providing quiet visual texture rather than a defined motif. This substantial-looking woven texture is best suited to upholstery, particularly where a calm, hard-edged neutral is wanted. No composition, width, usage rating or rub-test specification has been supplied for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Use the cool silver-grey on an armchair, sofa or dining seat to bring a softly textured neutral into a room. Pair it with pale timber, charcoal accents or cooler blue-grey tones to echo the fabric’s understated depth.

Kensey Tweed 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.
