Weave Fabric

Romo Ticking Grey pairs fine warm grey vertical stripes with an ivory ground in a visibly textured weave. The close-set lines give the surface a calm, tailored rhythm without feeling stark.

About this fabric

The design is made up of repeated narrow vertical stripes, with darker grey lines softened by flecks of lighter yarn and the natural irregularity of the weave. Against the ivory background, the grey reads warm and muted rather than sharp or highly contrasted. The closely spaced pattern creates a small-scale visual effect that remains composed across the swatch. Its woven appearance gives the colourway an understated, relaxed character for upholstery, cushions or drapery.

How to use it

Pair this warm grey and ivory colourway with natural wood, chalky painted finishes and soft taupe upholstery. Turn the vertical ticking into a gentle architectural detail on a blind, curtain or occasional chair.

Use the warm grey-and-ivory ticking stripes to add quiet structure to relaxed upholstery, cushions or softly tailored curtains.

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