Empire Ebony
Manhattan FabricCCF0209-04
Empire Ebony is a high-contrast geometric weave in near-black, charcoal grey and ivory. Stepped, interlocking bands are softened by the fabric’s visibly flecked surface, giving this colourway depth rather than a flat black finish.

About this fabric
Empire Ebony is a dense, graphic textile woven in black, charcoal grey and ivory, with stepped zigzag bands running horizontally across the face. The near-black bands create the strongest contrast, while the pale ground and grey passages soften the geometry with a lightly mottled, tactile surface. At 566 gsm and 137 cm usable width, it has the substantial presence suited to upholstery. The design has a 24 cm vertical repeat and an 8.5 cm horizontal repeat, with a standard 25 m length for planning larger furnishing projects.
How to use it
Pair the cool ebony, charcoal and ivory palette with black-painted furniture, pale boucle or warm natural timber. The strong horizontal zigzag can anchor a statement chair, headboard or ottoman without relying on additional colour.
Use the ivory ground and charcoal bands to balance dark timber, pale upholstery or monochrome schemes.

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