Misc Fabric

York Navy is a near-black navy textile with a quiet, finely mottled surface. The colour reads cool and deep, with only a restrained softness where the light catches the cloth.

About this fabric

This Andrew Martin fabric is catalogued in the Misc collection and presents a plain, low-contrast surface rather than a visible motif. Its dense-looking navy tone sits close to charcoal in the shadows, while faint blue remains across the face of the swatch. The subtle textile grain keeps the dark colour from appearing completely flat. With no further performance specifications supplied, York Navy is best considered for upholstery where its tailored depth can be appreciated at close range.

How to use it

Pair York Navy with pale stone, chalk or warm timber to draw out its cool blue depth, or use it on a statement chair where the almost-black tone can act as an architectural accent.

Use this near-black navy as a tailored upholstery shade to give seating depth without introducing a visible pattern.

Pairs well with

York Navy 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.
