About this fabric

The pale grey field reads as cool and mineral, while scattered charcoal strokes create stronger vertical and horizontal movement across the cloth. Muted brown-violet notes sit within the darker marks, adding warmth without changing the overall grey impression. The close-up reveals a fine crosshatched weave beneath the distressed, brush-like pattern. No further specification data has been supplied for this exact fabric, so its suitability is judged from the visible mid-weight woven appearance.

How to use it

Use this cool mineral-grey colourway on a tailored armchair, sofa or full-length curtain where its charcoal markings can provide quiet graphic contrast. Pair it with pale stone upholstery, dark timber and brushed metal to pick up both the cool ground and the warmer brown accents.

A cool mineral-grey ground with painterly charcoal and muted brown marks for quietly graphic upholstery or drapery.

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.
