About this fabric

This Zinc Textile fabric is part of the Ventus Sheers collection and is catalogued as a fabric, with no performance features noted in the supplied information. The light grey tone has a cool, misted quality that reads close to icy white in the image, while the fine weave adds gentle definition. Subtle thread variation prevents the surface from looking completely flat, but keeps the overall effect airy and understated. As a sheer textile, it is best considered for drapery, where its pale tone can soften daylight without introducing a strong colour statement.

How to use it

Use Glisten Frost at a bright window where its cool pale-grey tone can diffuse daylight into a calm, silvered backdrop. It would also layer neatly with a heavier blind or curtain when a little more privacy is needed.

A fine, softly textured sheer in an icy pale grey, suited to light-filtering curtains and layered window treatments.

Pairs well with

Glisten Frost 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.
