What size do these print at?

Each speckle field is a seamless repeat at A3 proportions, so it prints clean at A4 or tiles for larger surfaces.

Can I get a different fleck colour?

Yes — name any colour, and the same three fleck densities render it.

What's the difference between the three densities?

Fine is a light, sparse dusting; granite matches the coarser fleck size of a stone worktop; dense fills the field with a heavier scatter.

Why does the pattern need to look thrown rather than printed?

A speckle that repeats too regularly reads as a printed dot grid, not a natural texture — the grammar keeps the fleck size and spacing irregular on purpose.

Speckle pattern: fine, granite, dense in three colourways

Speckle — Flecks finer than a pinhead in two tones over a pale ground, irregular in shape and randomly placed, the density even enough that the surface reads as a single soft grey stone., speckle repeat, irregular ragged flecks at random size and angle, the density varying as if flicked from a loaded brush, no shape repeating and no grid detectable, flecks with a fibrous paper texture

Speckle is the mark of the granite worktop and the school notebook cover: flecks too small to be shapes and too many to count. These nine hold a fine light dusting, a granite-grade fleck size and a dense, heavy scatter, always reading as thrown rather than stamped. Ask for a different fleck colour and the same three densities carry it.

About toile

This page is a showcase and a starting point: nine samples already rendered, three readings of the pack crossed with three styles, each shown at the size and ratio it was made for. Take any of them further on the wall with a few words, or ask for all nine again under your own direction; a sign-in keeps what you make, and it is free while Toile is new. The recipe behind each sample — the subject, the style, the palette, the framing — travels with the image rather than staying private to the render: it is in the alt text of every sample and in the page's own structured data, so a search engine reads the same handles a person would.
