Sherborne FabricJ585F-36

Sherborne Dark Grey is a quietly tailored plain in a deep charcoal grey with a soft, gently mottled surface. The shade reads cool and grounded, with just enough variation in the weave to keep it from looking flat.

About this fabric

This colourway from the Sherborne collection is made from 100% polyester and comes approximately 143cm wide, with a vertical and horizontal repeat of 0cm. The fabric has a finely textured, subtly heathered look that softens the dark grey tone and gives it depth in the light. Its finish feels smart rather than glossy, making the colour read as a restrained charcoal with a slightly weathered edge. Care code C 8 < T 3 and fire code K are supplied for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Use this dark grey as a grounding upholstery on a sofa or armchair, where the muted weave can balance timber, brass, or pale painted finishes. It also works well for tailored curtains when you want a cooler, architectural grey that won’t dominate the room.

A versatile charcoal tone that works neatly on seating or softening windows.

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.
