SKU: 97

Abete Dark Grey has a deep charcoal tone with a cool, understated character. Fine horizontal striations run across the surface, creating a restrained woven texture rather than a decorative motif.

About this fabric

The swatch shows a dense dark grey ground, softened by closely spaced horizontal lines in slightly varied charcoal tones. Its fine striated weave gives the surface quiet movement, with the texture becoming more noticeable where the light catches it. The near-black depth makes this colourway feel smart and architectural while remaining softer than a flat black. The compact, substantial-looking cloth is particularly suited to tailored upholstery and seating.

How to use it

Use Abete Dark Grey on a clean-lined sofa, dining chair or headboard where its cool charcoal tone can anchor lighter walls and warm timber. Pair it with brushed metal, pale stone and textured neutrals to bring out the subtle horizontal weave.

A deep charcoal woven texture for tailored upholstery and refined seating.

Pairs well with

Abete Dark Grey 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.
