Spencer Ebony has a deep charcoal-black ground animated by a tightly spaced ivory micro-check. The close pattern reads almost as fine vertical texture at a distance, while the pale flecks become more apparent across the surface.

About this fabric

This 301 gsm woven fabric has a compact, graphic appearance, with narrow dark-and-light marks creating a restrained broken-check effect. Its 140 cm usable width makes it practical for upholstery panels and seating, while the 40 m standard length supports larger schemes. The pattern repeat is exceptionally fine at 0.5 cm vertically and 2 cm horizontally, keeping the design discreet and textural rather than overtly decorative.

How to use it

Use Spencer Ebony on a tailored armchair, dining chair or compact sofa where its near-black tone can add depth without introducing a flat solid. Pair it with warm timber, brushed metal and pale upholstery accents to bring out the subtle ivory checks.

A dense charcoal-and-ivory micro-check with a tailored, quietly graphic character for upholstered seating.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Spencer Ebony without fighting it. 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.
