About this fabric

The swatch is a rich chocolate brown with a warm cocoa cast, reading darker and more grounded than a mid-brown. Its plain surface has fine, blurred variation that gives the dense colour a gently brushed depth as the light shifts across it. Made from 88% polyester and 12% viscose, Cadogan is 140 cm (55") wide and specified for fixed upholstery. Care guidance lists a cool machine wash as the minimum wash and requires professional dry cleaning; it must not be tumble dried or bleached, and should be cool ironed.

How to use it

Use this warm chocolate brown on a fixed-upholstered sofa, chair or headboard where its deep, even tone can anchor lighter textiles and timber finishes. The subtle surface variation keeps the dark colour from looking completely flat.

A deep, softly mottled chocolate brown for tailored fixed upholstery with understated warmth.

Cadogan Chocolate 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.
