About this fabric

The fabric reads as a cool-to-neutral soapstone shade, softened by creamy beige and taupe threads throughout the weave. Its fine irregular crosshatch gives the surface gentle visual movement, while the close-up shows a dry, lightly nubby texture that catches the light without becoming glossy. The tonal variation keeps this pale colourway from looking flat, while retaining a calm, understated appearance. No performance features are noted for this fabric.

How to use it

Use Kelby Soapstone to upholster a relaxed armchair or sofa where its pale greige tone can sit comfortably with chalky whites, warm timber and muted taupes. It can also provide a quiet textural layer for curtains in a softly neutral room.

A softly textured pale greige weave that brings quiet depth to upholstery, curtains and layered neutral schemes.

Pairs well with

Kelby Soapstone 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.
