Nura Noir

Nura III Fabric04784-17

Nura Noir is a striking near-black cotton with a deep, matte finish that reads clean and architectural in the swatch. Its very subtle woven texture softens the darkness, giving the colourway depth rather than flatness.

About this fabric

Part of the Nura III collection by Manuel Canovas, Nura Noir is woven in 100% cotton and offered at approximately 140cm wide. The repeat is 0cm vertically and horizontally, so the plain effect is uninterrupted across the surface. Visually, this colourway is an intense noir black with a restrained, low-sheen appearance and just enough visible weave to keep it from feeling stark. The result is a fabric that feels refined and dramatic, with a smooth hand and a quietly tactile surface. Care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code √BM are supplied for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Use Nura Noir to ground a room with tailored black seating, a bench or occasional chair, or to sharpen lighter linens and woods. Its deep matte tone works especially well where you want contrast without shine, bringing a crisp, contemporary edge.

Use as a sleek anchor fabric for pared-back schemes and tailored upholstery.

Pairs well with

Nura Noir 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.
