Weave Fabric

Anna Ticking Grey is a woven stripe with a pale ivory ground and closely spaced vertical bands in soft, charcoal-tinged grey. Its fine linear texture gives the surface gentle movement without a bold graphic effect.

About this fabric

The pale ivory ground is crossed by narrow grey stripes, with darker broken lines sitting beside softer herringbone-like woven bands. The grey reads muted rather than stark, creating a cool, quietly weathered appearance against the warm light ground. Fine changes in the weave catch the light along the stripe edges, adding depth to the otherwise orderly vertical pattern. The supplied details note no performance features for this colourway.

How to use it

Use the soft grey-and-ivory palette for relaxed seat upholstery, bolster cushions or full-length curtains, pairing it with warm white, natural timber and understated grey accents. The narrow vertical repeat can also lend a gentle sense of height to a chair or window treatment.

A relaxed grey-and-ivory ticking stripe for tailored upholstery, cushions or easy-hanging curtains.

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.
