Siegfried Check Soot

Herriot FabricSGFRDSOOT

Siegfried Check Soot is a deep charcoal-grey check, with pale grey lines softened by a lightly flecked, brushed-looking ground. The close view shows a tactile woven surface rather than a flat printed finish.

About this fabric

The dark soot ground gives this check a cool, weighty appearance, while the pale grey grid lines add definition without becoming stark. Its softly mottled surface catches the light unevenly, creating depth within each charcoal square. The medium-scale check reads as tailored and composed, with a quiet textural character suited to upholstery. No composition, width, rub-test or performance specification has been supplied for this colourway.

How to use it

Use Siegfried Check Soot on a structured armchair, sofa or dining seat where its charcoal tone can anchor a room. Pair it with warm timber, aged leather and pale grey textiles to balance the cool depth of the check.

Use this deep soot-grey check to bring tailored texture and quiet contrast to upholstered seating.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Siegfried Check Soot without fighting it. 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.
