About this fabric

Coniston Slate presents as a close, compact carpet surface in a cool slate-grey base, softened by fine taupe and charcoal flecks. The small-scale mottling gives the colour depth without introducing a repeating motif, while the short textured pile catches light in tiny, uneven highlights. It is catalogued as Carpet in Cormar’s Apollo Elite collection and supplied as Category: Easy Clean. The overall effect is quiet and grounded, with a slightly earthy cast beneath the cooler slate impression.

How to use it

Use this cool grey-brown shade to ground rooms with pale stone, chalky neutrals or warm timber. Its quiet, low-contrast fleck helps soften larger areas of flooring without adding a strong pattern.

The dense, softly flecked surface gives this slate-grey carpet a quietly tailored feel underfoot.

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.
