Nikko Grey shows a softly brushed damask motif in layered blue-grey tones over a pale ground. The effect is painterly and cool, with the pattern reading clearly without feeling heavy.

About this fabric

This Voyage Maison fabric is woven in a 60% cotton, 40% viscose composition with a substantial 467 gsm weight, and it is suitable for curtains, blinds and soft furnishings. The design has a large 68 cm horizontal repeat and 56.5 cm vertical repeat, which suits the bold mirrored motif visible in the swatch. In this colourway, the grey sits on the cooler side with slate, mist and faded denim undertones, while the pale background keeps the overall look light. The surface has a gently textured, cloth-like finish that softens the edges of the pattern and gives it a smart but relaxed character.

How to use it

Use Nikko Grey on full-length curtains or a statement blind where the large repeat can be appreciated. Its cool blue-grey palette works especially well with white paintwork, stone, oak and brushed metal finishes.

Pair with pale woods and crisp whites for a calm, tailored scheme.

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