Lovely Bitter
Lovely Fabric
Lovely Bitter is a deep smoky taupe with a brown-grey cast, appearing darker and warmer where the folds gather. Its softly brushed surface catches muted highlights rather than a sharp shine.

About this fabric
The image shows Lovely Bitter as a deep smoky taupe, sitting between brown-grey and charcoal rather than reading as a clean neutral. Its soft, nap-like face catches the light across the folds, shifting from dusky matte valleys to subdued highlights on the raised ridges. The heavy-looking cloth is particularly suited to upholstered seating, where those changes in direction would give a plain form quiet depth. No performance features are noted for this colourway.
How to use it
Pair this smoky brown-grey taupe with warm timber, aged metal and chalky neutrals for a grounded room scheme. On a sofa or occasional chair, its low-contrast sheen will add depth without introducing a visible pattern.
Use this deep smoky taupe on upholstered seating to emphasise its soft pile and restrained tonal sheen.

Pairs well with
Lovely Bitter 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.
