About this fabric

Woven in 100% polyester and specified for Severe Contract Upholstery And Drapes, Alaska Gunmetal combines a practical performance profile with a smooth, understated surface. The fabric has a dense, even appearance rather than a pronounced texture, which helps the gunmetal tone look refined and contemporary. At 146cm wide and with a 45,000 Severe Contract rub test, it is designed for demanding interior schemes where durability matters. The 300gsm weight and 438 grams per linear metre give it enough substance for clean lines on seating while still making sense for drapery in a coordinated scheme.

How to use it

Use this charcoal colourway on structured sofas, banquettes or dining chairs for a crisp, architectural look. It also hangs well in modern curtains where the dark grey will frame lighter walls and metallic accents.

A cool charcoal plain that works cleanly across tailored seating and pared-back drapery.

Pairs well with

Alaska Gunmetal 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.
