Name: Sulis Chinchilla

Sulis Chinchilla is a quiet greige woven fabric with a soft, chinchilla-like depth. Its close crosshatch texture gives the otherwise plain surface gentle tonal movement without a visible printed motif.

About this fabric

The colour sits between warm grey and pale taupe, with a muted, mineral quality that changes subtly across the weave. Fine horizontal and vertical threads create a delicate crosshatch, while the lightly irregular yarn texture keeps the surface from looking flat. The fabric reads as a versatile mid-weight textile from the swatch, making it suitable for both upholstery and drapery. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification.

How to use it

Use Chinchilla to soften a contemporary room with warm white, stone and pale timber, or pair it with charcoal accents for a more layered tonal scheme. Its restrained greige tone works particularly well on relaxed seating and full-length curtains.

A softly mottled greige weave that brings quiet texture to upholstery, curtains and layered neutral schemes.

Pairs well with

Sulis Chinchilla 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.
