About this fabric
The blue-grey tone sits between navy and slate, reading cool and understated rather than bright or saturated. A fine, low-contrast weave adds gentle surface variation without introducing a visible pattern, making the colour feel quietly dimensional as the light moves across it. The swatch has the appearance of a versatile mid-weight textile, suitable for both upholstery and drapery applications. No composition, width or rub-test information is supplied for this colourway, and no performance features are noted.
How to use it
Use 31 Captain to bring a cool, grounded note to a room with pale timber, chalky walls or warm neutrals. Its restrained slate tone would also suit a tailored sofa, occasional chair or softly structured curtain where a plain fabric with subtle texture is wanted.
A composed slate-blue plain weave for tailored upholstery or softly structured window treatments.

Pairs well with
31 Captain 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.
