About this fabric

The swatch is a very pale chalk white, softened with a subtle warm-grey cast rather than a stark paper white. A fine, understated woven texture gives the otherwise plain surface gentle depth without introducing a visible motif. As part of Zinc Textile’s Splash Outdoor collection, it is specified for outdoor use. The restrained colour and low-contrast texture keep the fabric visually calm on upholstered forms.

How to use it

Use Flamands Chalk to lighten outdoor seating, scatter cushions or a covered bench, pairing its soft chalk tone with pale timber, stone and muted greenery. Its quiet surface also works well where a bright, unfussy upholstery ground is wanted.

A softly textured chalk-white ground that brings a clean, light finish to outdoor upholstery.

Flamands 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.
