About this fabric

The image shows an almost plain pale-grey ground, with delicate tonal variation running through the fine, lightly irregular weave. Its cool cast keeps the colour airy and clean, while the subtle surface texture prevents it from appearing completely flat. The finish reads as matt, with no visible sheen or pile. Quentin is catalogued as a fabric, and no composition, width, rub test or other performance specification has been supplied for this exact colourway.

How to use it

Use this cool pale grey on curtains, blinds or softly tailored upholstery where its quiet texture can complement white, stone and charcoal tones. It also works as a calm backdrop for darker wood and brushed metal accents.

Use its cool pale-grey neutrality to bring a quiet, finely textured finish to contemporary or classic rooms.

27 Light Grey 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.
