About this fabric

The swatch shows a closely packed, regular weave in cool dark grey, with fine lighter threads creating a restrained grid-like texture. Its dense, opaque appearance reads as firm and upholstery-suitable rather than fluid or sheer. The even surface gives the colour a tailored, quietly architectural character without a visible motif or pattern. No composition, width or rub-test specification has been supplied for this fabric.

How to use it

Use Ernesto Dark Grey on a structured sofa, dining chair or headboard where its cool charcoal tone can anchor a room. Pair it with pale stone, soft white or warm timber to bring definition without introducing strong colour.

Use this deep charcoal-grey weave to give upholstered seating a restrained, tailored finish.

Ernesto 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.
