About this fabric
The shade sits between warm grey and light beige, with the subdued depth associated with putty rather than a crisp or stark neutral. Across the swatch, fine closely spaced lines create a brushed, lightly ribbed impression, while softer cloudy variations prevent the surface from looking flat. Its restrained plain weave and mid-weight appearance make it a versatile choice for upholstery or drapery. The overall effect is calm and understated, with the texture becoming more apparent as light moves across the surface.
How to use it
Pair Cumbrae 20 Putty with chalky whites, pale timber and warm grey accents for a quiet layered scheme. Its soft putty tone also works well as a neutral backdrop for deeper olive, charcoal or muted blue furnishings.
Use this softly muted putty-grey textile to bring gentle tonal texture to upholstery, curtains or cushions.

Pairs well with
20 Putty 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.
