Chiado Putty

Chiado Putty has a quiet, pale putty-taupe colour with a soft greige cast. The close, fine weave creates a subtly textured surface while keeping the overall appearance calm and understated.

About this fabric

The surface is an even plain weave, with tiny woven lines visible across the swatch rather than a printed motif. Its light taupe tone sits between warm beige and cool grey, giving the fabric a gentle, balanced depth. Fine tonal variation across the weave stops the pale colour from looking completely flat. No composition or performance specification has been supplied for this fabric.

How to use it

Use Chiado Putty for full-length curtains, relaxed Roman blinds or softly gathered panels where its pale greige-putty tone can filter light without dominating the room. Pair it with chalky whites, warm oak and muted stone shades for a calm, layered scheme.

Its pale putty tone and fine, even weave suit softly tailored curtains and understated window treatments.

Pairs well with

Chiado Putty 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.
