About this fabric

This Wemyss Alberta swatch is a solid, finely woven textile in a warm grey-taupe shade, with subtle tonal variation visible across the surface. The small-scale weave gives the colour gentle depth and prevents it from appearing flat, while the low-contrast finish keeps the overall impression calm and understated. As no further specification data is supplied for this exact fabric, its suitability here is judged from the visible mid-weight-looking weave for upholstery and softly tailored drapery.

How to use it

Use 17 Heather to bring a cool, grounded layer to an upholstered chair, sofa or headboard, especially alongside chalky whites, natural timber and soft stone tones. Its restrained grey-taupe depth also works well for simple curtains where a plain textile with quiet texture is preferred.

Its muted heather-grey tone and fine texture suit tailored upholstery, cushions or softly structured window treatments.

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.
