Lucca Dove

Alonso FabricCCF0390-04

Lucca Dove is a quiet plain textile in a dusky dove-taupe shade, with a subtle mauve cast that becomes more apparent across the close-up surface. Its fine, even texture gives the colour a softly softened, non-reflective character.

About this fabric

The swatch has no visible motif, presenting a close, lightly mottled weave that adds depth without introducing a pattern. Its tone sits between cool dove grey and muted taupe, warmed by a restrained mauve undertone rather than a strong pink or purple note. At 386 gsm and 140 cm usable width, it has the visual substance suited to upholstery applications. Both the vertical and horizontal pattern repeats are 0 cm, and the standard length is 30 m.

How to use it

Use Lucca Dove for a calm upholstered chair, sofa or headboard where its muted mauve-taupe depth can soften a scheme of putty, oyster, walnut or charcoal. Keep surrounding patterns more graphic or tonal so the fine surface texture remains the detail.

Use this softly dusky mauve taupe on tailored upholstery, paired with warm woods, chalky neutrals or aged metal.

Pairs well with

Lucca Dove 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.
