Basalt
Primo Naturals Carpet
Basalt has a warm taupe-grey ground with close, peppered tonal variation across the surface. Its dense, short texture gives the colour a softly mottled depth rather than a flat, uniform appearance.

About this fabric
This Primo Naturals colourway is a carpet listed in the Easy Clean category. Fine charcoal, beige and brown-grey flecks blend through the Basalt shade, creating a muted, mineral-like surface. The compact pile appears dense and even, with gentle changes in tone where the light catches the texture. Its restrained contrast gives the swatch a quietly tailored character while retaining the natural depth associated with a mixed neutral.
How to use it
Pair Basalt with warm ivory, putty and weathered timber for a grounded scheme, or use it to soften sharper black and stone accents. The warm grey-taupe tone is particularly effective where a neutral needs more depth than plain grey.
Use this softly flecked taupe-grey shade to bring understated depth to structured seating and layered neutral schemes.

Pairs well with
Basalt 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.
