About this fabric

The narrow, regular ribs give this colourway a tailored appearance, while the almost-black tone creates a strong, grounded finish without visible patterning. Made from 100% polyester, RIB2936 is supplied at 138cm wide and is suitable for both contract and domestic upholstery. It is machine washable, making the cloth practical for upholstered pieces that need straightforward aftercare. Flame retardancy is rated Domestic Cig & Match, with treatment available to achieve Crib 5 contract grade.

How to use it

Use this charcoal-black cord on a sofa, dining chair or headboard where its vertical ribbing can add tactile definition to a dark, tailored scheme. Pair it with pale timber, warm neutrals or brushed metal to bring out the subtle graphite lift in the pile.

A near-black rib cord that brings tailored texture and understated depth to upholstered seating.

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.
