Emile Smoke is a deep, understated brown with a soft smoky cast and a smooth, quietly woven surface. The colour reads cool and muted rather than rich or glossy, giving the fabric a calm, refined presence.

About this fabric

This plain fabric from Jane Churchill's Emile II collection is woven in a 50% cotton, 50% polyester blend and measures approximately 140cm wide, with a vertical and horizontal repeat of 0cm. The surface appears fine and even, with a very subtle texture that keeps the smoky brown tone looking soft rather than flat. In this colourway, the shade sits between cocoa and charcoal, so it feels grounded and versatile without turning overly warm. The C 8 + T 3 care code and K fire code make it a practical specification-led choice for interior schemes where a restrained, smart finish is needed.

How to use it

Use Emile Smoke on upholstered seating, headboards or simple drapes where its muted brown depth can add warmth without dominating the room. It pairs especially well with pale oak, chalk white and bronze accents for a tailored, modern look.

A muted dark neutral that suits tailored upholstery or elegant curtains.

Pairs well with

Emile Smoke 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.
