About this fabric
Catalogued as a fabric, Alberta 05 Shale has a dense-looking, fine weave that reads as considered and hard-wearing in the swatch image. Small variations between grey and charcoal threads create a soft, granular texture, while the cool undertone keeps the shade crisp rather than warm. The restrained surface has no visible motif, making the character of the weave the defining detail. No performance features are noted in the supplied information.
How to use it
Use this cool grey on a tailored sofa, dining chair or ottoman where its fine woven texture can add depth without introducing a pattern. Pair it with pale stone, charcoal, brushed metal or muted blue accents for a calm contemporary scheme.
A cool, finely textured grey for tailored upholstery and contemporary rooms.

Pairs well with
05 Shale 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.
