About this fabric

The woven surface combines a taupe-grey base with lighter grey angular motifs, creating repeated diamond and stepped-chevron forms across the cloth. Fine diagonal lines cross between the motifs, adding a subtle lattice effect without disturbing the overall softness of the colourway. The texture appears gently tactile, with the pale pattern catching the light against the deeper neutral ground. No performance features are noted for this textile, so suitability should be assessed against the intended application.

How to use it

Pair this warm taupe-grey colourway with natural timber, chalky plaster tones and soft cream upholstery for a relaxed, tonal scheme. Its muted geometric repeat also works well on a statement chair or full-length curtains where the pale motifs can read across a larger surface.

Use this softly textured taupe-grey weave to bring quiet pattern and warmth to upholstery or curtains.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Algonquin Basket without fighting it. 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.
