About this fabric

The close bouclé weave is made up of small irregular loops, creating a softly pebbled texture rather than a printed motif; faint vertical shifts in the surface add subtle depth. This colourway reads as a cool charcoal grey, with lighter grey fibres catching the light between the darker ground and keeping it from looking completely flat. Made from 100% polyester and 138cm wide, it is graded for both contract and domestic upholstery. Aftercare is machine washable, with domestic Cig & Match flame retardancy and the option to treat it to Crib 5 contract grade.

How to use it

Use COR3096 on a structured sofa, armchair or dining seat where its dense charcoal tone can anchor pale timber, chalky walls and brushed metal. Add warmer cushions or a softly coloured rug to balance the cool grey and highlight the bouclé texture.

Use this cool charcoal bouclé to bring tactile depth to sofas, occasional chairs and dining seats.

Pairs well with

COR3096 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.
