Austell Smoke

Name: Austell Smoke
Brand: Zinc Textile

Austell Smoke reads as a pale, cool grey textile, with a softly flecked surface and narrow vertical movement visible across the swatch. Its almost white ground keeps the colour airy, while darker grey threads add quiet definition.

About this fabric

The close, fine weave creates a lightly tactile surface rather than a flat plain, with delicate vertical lines running through the pale smoke-grey ground. Subtle tonal variation gives the swatch gentle depth as the light catches the raised threads. This textile is catalogued as a fabric and no performance features or further specification data are supplied for this colourway, so project suitability should be confirmed against the intended use.

How to use it

Use Austell Smoke where a room needs a cool, light neutral with more surface interest than a plain white or grey. Its fine vertical texture would sit comfortably on softly tailored seating or full-length curtains alongside pale timber, chalky walls and muted grey accents.

A pale, finely textured neutral for softly tailored upholstery, curtains and relaxed interiors.

Pairs well with

Austell Smoke 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.
