Brio 04

Weave Fabric

Brio 04 is a close, small-scale weave in a cool blue-grey, with pale threads breaking up the darker ground into a subtly mottled surface.

About this fabric

Brio 04 is built visually from tiny pale and charcoal-blue rectangular flecks, giving the surface a closely textured, almost peppered rhythm. The cool blue-grey ground reads deeper in the denser passages, while the lighter threads keep the swatch from appearing flat. This is a compact, quiet weave rather than a large motif, so its interest comes from near-at-hand texture and tonal variation. No composition, width, rub-test or other performance specification has been supplied for this listing.

How to use it

Use this cool blue-grey colourway on an upholstered chair, headboard or sofa where its fine flecking can add depth without introducing a bold pattern. It sits naturally with chalky neutrals, pale timber and darker charcoal details.

Pair its cool blue-grey depth with pale timber, chalky walls and charcoal accents.

Brio 04 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.
