Mia Ardoise is a deep charcoal linen with a fine, dry-looking weave and a quietly tailored feel. The surface reads matte and closely woven, giving the shade a restrained, architectural presence.

About this fabric

Woven in 100% linen and measuring approximately 140cm wide, Mia Ardoise has no visible repeat, which keeps the finish calm and uninterrupted across a scheme. The colour is a cool, softened charcoal grey with slight tonal variation in the weave, so it feels dimensional rather than flat black. Its crisp linen texture brings a natural, lightly slubbed character that suits upholstery or drapery equally well. The overall effect is smart and understated, with enough depth to anchor lighter woods, stone and pale neutrals. Care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code √BM are supplied for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Use Mia Ardoise on a tailored armchair, bench or curtain panels where you want a dark neutral that still feels breathable. It pairs especially well with pale oak, brushed metal and off-white walls for a crisp, contemporary contrast.

A refined charcoal linen that adds quiet depth to tailored interiors.

Mia Ardoise 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.
