About this fabric

The surface has a delicate cross-hatched texture, with fine threads creating a lightly heathered appearance rather than a flat solid colour. In the folds, the grey deepens gently in shadow while raised areas catch the light with a soft, silvery lift. The fabric falls into fluid pleats and appears lightweight, making it particularly suited to drapery. No performance features are noted in the supplied data, so project-specific requirements should be checked before ordering.

How to use it

Pair this cool, muted grey with chalky whites, pale timber and brushed metal for an understated window treatment. Its fine texture can also soften a sharper contemporary scheme without introducing a strong pattern.

Use this softly textured grey for curtains or blinds where a quiet, fluid finish is wanted.

Pairs well with

Chiltern Magnesium 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.
