About this fabric

Palma Black from the Palma II collection by Jane Churchill is woven in 100% polyester and has a repeat of V 0cm / H 0cm approx, which keeps the surface calm and uninterrupted. The 140cm approx width makes it practical for a range of furnishing projects. Visually, this colourway reads as a softened black with brown-green undertones, and the fine weave creates a matte, slightly heathered effect that catches light only in a very restrained way. It feels tailored and understated rather than stark, with enough texture to add interest to large expanses without drawing attention away from the room scheme.

How to use it

Use Palma Black on a streamlined sofa, occasional chair, or boxy cushions where the dark, smoky tone can anchor lighter walls and timber finishes. It also works well for curtains in a room that needs a sharper, more tailored edge.

A dark, versatile cloth that works beautifully for clean-lined upholstery or drapery.

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.
