Flair Steel

Name: Flair Steel
Brand: Warwick

Flair Steel has a deep steel-grey ground with a subtle, finely striated surface that shifts between charcoal and cooler grey as the cloth folds. Its understated linear texture gives the colourway a quietly dimensional appearance.

About this fabric

The supplied catalogue identifies Flair Steel as a fabric, with no performance features noted. In the image, narrow vertical and gently irregular lines run through the weave, creating a softly ribbed effect rather than a bold printed motif. The charcoal-grey tone has a cool, muted depth, while the raised folds catch lighter grey highlights against darker slate-like shadows. The cloth appears to have enough body for upholstery while remaining pliable in gathered drapery.

How to use it

Use this cool steel-grey colourway to bring definition to a contemporary sofa, occasional chair or full-length curtain, especially alongside pale stone, blackened metal and smoked timber. Its shifting charcoal depth also works well as a quiet textural layer in a monochrome room.

A cool charcoal-steel weave that brings restrained texture to upholstery, cushions or softly gathered window treatments.

Pairs well with

Flair Steel 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.
