Skiddaw Slate
Kingston Carpet
Skiddaw Slate is a cool, charcoal-led grey with fine pale flecks distributed across the surface. The close, irregular texture gives the colour a softly variegated depth rather than a flat block of grey.

About this carpet
This Kingston colourway combines charcoal, slate grey and lighter grey fibres in a dense, nubby-looking surface. The small-scale mottling remains understated, while the mixed tones soften the intensity of the darkest fibres and create gentle visual movement. Catalogued as Carpet, Skiddaw Slate is listed in the Easy Clean category. Its substantial, closely textured appearance reads as relaxed and practical for hard-working upholstery.
How to use it
Use Skiddaw Slate where a cool, grounded neutral is needed: it pairs naturally with blackened metal, pale timber and crisp white, while its flecked surface helps disguise everyday marks. The charcoal depth also gives lighter cushions and throws a clear contrast without introducing a strong pattern.
A dense, easy-clean slate-grey texture for practical upholstery with a softly mottled finish.

Skiddaw Slate 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.
