About this fabric

This flat-weave fabric combines mottled charcoal and pale grey threads in a small broken-check pattern, with muted red lines adding definition between the larger squares. The close weave gives the surface a firm, upholstery-ready look rather than a fluid drapery appearance. Made from 100% polyester and supplied at 138cm wide, it is suitable for both contract and domestic upholstery. BOL3271 is machine washable and has Domestic Cig & Match GreenFR® flame retardancy, with treatment available for contract grade.

How to use it

Use the cool charcoal ground on a sofa, dining chair or headboard where the red windowpane lines can act as a restrained colour accent. Pair it with solid charcoal, slate grey or deep red cushions to draw out the fabric’s tailored contrast.

A tailored charcoal check with fine red lines for upholstered seating that needs a crisp, considered finish.

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.
