About this fabric

This plain Fossil colourway reads as a soft, warm greige, with the image moving from a pale stone face to a deeper taupe-grey fold. The satin finish is visibly smooth and fine, catching light gently across the curved fold rather than showing a motif. At 380gsm and 140cm usable width, it has the substance for upholstery as well as tailored drapery. With zero vertical and horizontal pattern repeat, the cloth can be cut without matching a design.

How to use it

Use this softly warm greige on an upholstered chair, headboard or sofa where its shaded taupe depth can add quiet definition. It also suits full-length curtains in rooms needing a pale stone neutral with a subtle satin glow.

A smooth, softly lustrous greige satin with enough weight for upholstery and elegant drapery.

Pairs well with

Zoffany Wool Satin Fossil 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.
