Orchard Grosgrain Chalk has a quiet, chalky grey-taupe appearance in this close-up. Fine horizontal lines meet a tight woven grid, creating the restrained ribbed character visible across the surface.

About this fabric

This 330 gsm outdoor fabric has a softly textured grosgrain weave, with fine pale and darker threads creating gentle tonal variation rather than a printed motif. The chalk-grey colour reads cool and muted in the lighter areas, while the denser woven sections introduce a subtle mushroom depth. At 150 cm wide, it offers a practical scale for upholstery applications. Its vertical and horizontal pattern repeats are both 0 cm, so the uninterrupted woven texture can be used without pattern matching.

How to use it

Use this chalk-grey colourway on tailored outdoor seat cushions, dining chairs or a structured bench, pairing it with pale stone, weathered timber and charcoal accents. Its low-contrast woven texture adds depth while keeping the scheme calm and considered.

A smart chalk-grey grosgrain with subtle woven texture for tailored outdoor upholstery.

Pairs well with

Orchard Grosgrain Chalk 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.
