Kelby Basalt

Kelby Basalt has a softly mottled taupe-grey appearance, with fine pale and darker threads creating a quietly dimensional surface. Its restrained colour and close woven texture give the swatch a calm, tactile character.

About this fabric

The surface is a small-scale, irregular weave rather than a printed motif, with slender vertical and horizontal threads producing a subtle crosshatched effect. Warm beige-grey fibres and cooler grey notes mingle across the face, giving Basalt more depth than a flat neutral while keeping the overall impression muted. The cloth appears to be a versatile mid-weight suitable for upholstery or drapery based on its visible weave and handle. No composition, width or performance figures are supplied for this colourway.

How to use it

Pair this warm taupe-grey with chalky whites, natural oak and muted stone for a softly layered room, or use it on a relaxed sofa where the fine texture can be appreciated up close.

Use this softly textured taupe-grey weave to bring quiet depth to contemporary upholstery, cushions or relaxed curtains.

Pairs well with

Kelby Basalt 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.
