About this fabric

The image shows a restrained, near-solid cloth rather than a visible motif, with a soft nap-like surface and delicate vertical grain. Its cool mauve influence keeps the brown-taupe shade from feeling heavy, while the low contrast makes the colour read as calm and enveloping. The texture catches the light unevenly, creating understated tonal movement across the swatch. No performance features or further specification data are supplied for this colourway.

How to use it

Use 40 Dusk as a grounding neutral on an upholstered chair, sofa or full-length curtain, pairing its dusky mauve-taupe tone with warm stone, aged timber and muted plum accents. Its quiet surface also suits layered tonal schemes where texture, rather than pattern, provides the contrast.

A deep, muted neutral with a soft mauve cast and understated woven texture.

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.
