Congo Noir

Name: Congo Noir
Brand: Clarke & Clarke
SKU: CCW0060-04

Congo Noir builds a dense botanical scene from charcoal and blue-grey foliage, with pale sage leaves and flashes of ochre catching across the surface. Its dark, layered ground gives the colourway a moody depth while keeping the leaf detail clearly visible.

About this fabric

The design is filled with overlapping painted-style leaves in charcoal, smoky blue-grey, olive, muted sage and warm ochre, creating a richly shaded, almost dusky impression. Pale foliage lifts through the darker ground, while the ochre leaves add small areas of warmth rather than bright contrast. The wallpaper has a 52 cm usable width, a 52 cm vertical pattern repeat and no horizontal repeat, allowing the foliage to continue in a vertically organised sequence. Supplied in a standard 10.05 m length at 150 gsm, Congo Noir is a substantial, repeat-led wallcovering specification for planning a full installation.

How to use it

Pair Congo Noir with charcoal, weathered timber and aged brass for a cocooning scheme, or pick out its pale sage leaves with muted green upholstery and soft neutral linens.

Use this deep charcoal botanical to bring layered foliage and warm ochre accents into a sophisticated room.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Congo Noir 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.
