Ditton Quail
Orton Fabric
Ditton Quail has a warm taupe-grey ground crossed by fine vertical lines, with small cream and charcoal accents creating a softly textured stripe. Its close, even weave gives the colourway a composed, tailored appearance.

About this fabric
Seen up close, the design is formed from narrow vertical bands of taupe, beige-grey, cream and charcoal, rather than a flat single-colour stripe. The tiny alternating woven marks add depth while keeping the overall impression understated and cohesive. The fabric has a dense, structured-looking surface suited to upholstery, and no performance features are noted in the supplied data. The warm neutral balance makes this colourway feel softer and more inviting than a purely cool grey.
How to use it
Use Ditton Quail on a neatly tailored armchair, dining chair or sofa where its warm taupe-grey tone can sit comfortably with natural wood, ivory and deeper charcoal accents. Its fine vertical rhythm also works well on pieces that benefit from subtle visual definition without a bold pattern.
A tightly woven taupe-grey stripe that brings quiet, tailored texture to upholstered furniture.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Ditton Quail 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.
