About this fabric

The surface is formed from a small, even woven texture that gives the fabric a gently granular appearance rather than a visible motif. Its lichen colouring sits between warm grey and soft taupe, with darker flecks adding subtle depth across the face. The cloth forms substantial, softly structured ridges in the photograph, indicating a weight and handle well suited to upholstery. Light settles into the textured weave, creating a restrained, quietly dimensional finish.

How to use it

Use Slite Lichen on a sofa, headboard or occasional chair where its muted taupe-grey tone can soften stronger wood, stone or painted finishes. Pair it with warm neutrals and natural textures for a calm, layered scheme.

A quietly refined taupe-grey texture that brings depth to upholstered seating without introducing a strong pattern.

Pairs well with

Slite Lichen 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.
