About this fabric

Markham is catalogued as a fabric in Andrew Martin’s Misc collection; no composition, width or performance specification has been supplied for this colourway. The close view shows a dense, fine plain weave in deep eggplant purple, with a charcoal cast that keeps the shade subdued rather than jewel-bright. Very fine vertical lines and minute tonal variation break up the flat colour, while the surface reads matte with only restrained light variation.

How to use it

Use this deep eggplant in a study, snug or upholstered seating scheme where its charcoal undertone can ground warm ivory, mushroom and pale stone. Its low-key woven texture also works well alongside brushed metal or dark timber without adding visual pattern.

Use this charcoal-leaning eggplant as a deep anchor against warm ivory, pale stone or brushed metal.

Markham Eggplant Fabric 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.
