About this fabric
The close-up shows a compact, even weave rather than a printed motif, with fine charcoal and lighter threads softly interrupting the taupe-grey ground. Its restrained colour reads cooler and more architectural than a warm beige, while the visible texture prevents it from looking flat. The substantial-looking woven surface makes this colourway best suited to upholstery, particularly tailored seating where its low-contrast character can be appreciated. No composition, width or rub-test figures are supplied for this listing.
How to use it
Pair Alberta 06 Pigeon with chalky whites, pale timber and brushed metal for a cool contemporary scheme, or use it to quieten richer navy, olive or walnut furnishings. Its muted taupe-grey tone is especially effective on clean-lined sofas and softly structured armchairs.
Use this cool taupe-grey weave to bring softly textured, tailored neutrality to sofas, armchairs and dining seats.

Pairs well with
06 Pigeon 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.
