Namibia Ebony

Namibia Ebony presents as a deep charcoal ground with a fine, peppered texture that softens the overall darkness. The tiny warm flecks keep the surface lively without breaking its understated look.

About this fabric

This fabric is supplied as drapes only and is woven in India from 85% polyester and 15% cotton. At 136cm wide, with a weight of 314 grams per linear metre and 231 grams per square metre, it has enough substance to hang with presence while still reading as a textural curtain cloth. The image shows a close, all-over scatter of pale flecks across an ebony-grey base, giving the surface a muted, stone-like depth rather than a flat solid. With no vertical or horizontal pattern repeat, the texture feels continuous and easy to use for full-length window treatments.

How to use it

Use this colourway for tailored curtains or relaxed interlined drapes where the charcoal tone can ground a pale room. Its quiet speckle works especially well with oak, smoked metal, and warm neutrals.

The dark, speckled ground gives a refined, understated finish for elegant curtains.

Pairs well with

Namibia Ebony 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.
