Emett Swedish Grey

Orly Fabric

Emett Swedish Grey has a cool, pale grey ground with a finely broken diagonal weave visible across the surface. Its restrained tonal contrast gives the cloth a softly textured, tailored appearance rather than a bold pattern.

About this fabric

The closely woven surface forms a small herringbone-like chevron that shifts gently between light and darker grey threads. This Swedish Grey colourway reads crisp and cool, with a dry, softly tactile texture that catches the light without becoming shiny. As no performance features are noted for this fabric, its suitability should be considered alongside the requirements of the intended upholstery or drapery application.

How to use it

Use this cool pale grey where a room needs a calm, tailored neutral with more surface interest than a plain cloth. It pairs naturally with chalky whites, blue-greys, pale timber and understated metal finishes.

A cool, quietly patterned grey for tailored upholstery, relaxed blinds or softly structured curtains.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Emett Swedish Grey without fighting it. 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.
