About this fabric

The colour sits between warm taupe and cool grey, creating a restrained mushroom tone that changes subtly as the surface catches the light. A fine, even nap is visible across the face, adding softness and low contrast rather than sheen or pattern. No composition, width or rub-test data was supplied, and no performance features are noted for this colourway.

How to use it

Use Tungsten on a tailored armchair, sofa or headboard where its greyed taupe tone can soften darker wood, stone and charcoal accents. Keep the scheme tonal with oatmeal, putty and warm grey textiles.

A softly brushed taupe-grey plain suitable for tailored upholstery and calm, tonal schemes.

Pairs well with

Z Suede Tungsten 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.
