Komodo Silk Fabric168

168 Ash is a quiet ash-grey colourway with a finely textured surface and subtle horizontal movement. Its softly mottled appearance shifts gently across the cloth rather than presenting as a flat, uniform grey.

About this fabric

The close surface shows fine horizontal slubs and delicate tonal variation, giving this ash shade a lightly weathered depth. The colour sits between cool grey and muted taupe, with darker threads appearing intermittently through the weave. This understated texture is particularly suited to relaxed, softly structured drapery where the surface can be seen across a larger span. No performance features are noted for this fabric.

How to use it

Use 168 Ash for full-length curtains in a calm, tonal room, balancing its cool muted grey with warm ivory, pale oak or brushed metal. Its restrained texture also works well alongside plain linens and softly aged finishes.

Pair this quiet ash grey with warm whites, natural timber and understated metal finishes.

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.
