About this fabric

The surface is finely woven with a small, pebbled variation that prevents the light taupe ground from appearing flat. Subtle shifts between cream, beige and grey give this colourway a softly dimensional, linen-like appearance without a defined motif. The restrained contrast keeps it relaxed and easy to layer, whether used across upholstery or as a textural drapery cloth. No performance features are noted for this fabric.

How to use it

Use this pale greige colourway to soften a neutral sitting room, pairing its warm mineral tone with chalky whites, natural timber and muted taupes. Its quiet surface also works well on relaxed upholstery or full-length curtains where the fine texture can catch gentle light.

A softly mottled pale greige with a quiet woven texture that suits both upholstery and drapery.

Pairs well with

Zumirez Linen 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.
