Vader Colour 15 is a deep charcoal grey textile with a near-black cast and a finely striated surface. Its close horizontal texture gives the dark colour subtle movement rather than a completely flat appearance.

About this fabric

The swatch reads as graphite charcoal, with cool grey undertones that deepen towards black in the darker areas. Fine horizontal lines run across the surface, creating a restrained linear texture visible within the otherwise plain ground. Slight tonal variation across the striations keeps the colourway from looking uniform, while the dense surface gives it a smart, tailored character. No additional performance or composition specification has been supplied for this fabric.

How to use it

Pair this cool, near-black charcoal with pale stone, chalky grey or warm timber to soften its depth, or use it on a tailored chair or sofa for a quietly architectural look.

Use this deep charcoal grey as a tailored upholstery ground where its fine horizontal texture can add quiet depth.

Pairs well with

Vader Colour 15 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.
