About this fabric

This Zinc Textile fabric uses a tightly packed, small-scale arrangement of broken linear marks, creating a subtle tessellated effect rather than a bold repeating motif. Silver-grey threads keep the colourway light and clean, while the darker accents sharpen the pattern and add definition. Its close, textured construction reads as a versatile mid-weight suitable for upholstery or drapery. No composition, width, rub test or additional performance features are supplied for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Use the cool silver-grey tone to soften contemporary seating, occasional chairs or cushions, pairing it with charcoal, chalk white and brushed metal. As a drapery fabric, its fine dark linear detail can add depth without introducing a strong contrasting pattern.

A cool silver-grey ground with charcoal linear marks brings subtle, tactile movement to upholstery, cushions or relaxed window treatments.

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.
