About this fabric

The design is built from linked, angular rings, with dark charcoal edges surrounding layered bands of pale grey, taupe and off-white flecks. Against the cooler grey ground, the contrast feels controlled and architectural rather than stark, while the woven surface gives the pattern a subtly tactile finish. At 313gsm, with a 136cm usable width and 40m standard length, this is a substantial mid-weight textile suited to both upholstery and drapery. Its 23.7cm vertical repeat and 27.2cm horizontal repeat allow the repeating octagonal links to remain clearly legible across a larger surface.

How to use it

Use Repeat Charcoal to upholster a contemporary chair or headboard where its cool grey depth can anchor softer neutral layers. It also works as structured window dressing, pairing naturally with charcoal, stone, ivory and weathered metal tones.

The cool charcoal ground and pale flecked geometry bring crisp definition to upholstery, cushions or full-length curtains.

Pairs well with

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