About this fabric

Woven in 80% polyester and 20% cotton, this fabric has the crisp, understated character of a plain curtain cloth rather than a decorative pattern. The steel-grey colour reads cool and muted, with slight tonal variation across the weave that stops it feeling flat. At 310 cm wide, it is well suited to generous drops and wide spans where minimal joins matter. With no martindale rub test noted and a curtaining use, it is best considered for window treatment rather than heavy seating.

How to use it

Pair this steel grey with white paint, black accents or pale timber for a smart, pared-back scheme. Its cool tone works especially well in contemporary rooms where you want texture without strong colour.

A clean steel-grey plain weave that feels tailored and quietly versatile.

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.
