About this fabric

Very Lava is catalogued as a Fabric in Dedar’s Fire-retardant collection; no additional performance features are noted in the supplied data. The near-black colour is softened by minute grey flecks and a subtle diagonal rib, preventing the surface from appearing completely flat. Fine vertical tonal shifts run through the swatch, creating restrained depth as the light catches the weave. Its compact, structured appearance makes this colourway particularly well suited to upholstery with a smart, understated finish.

How to use it

Use Very Lava on a tailored armchair, sofa or dining seat where its charcoal-black tone can anchor a room without the starkness of a pure, flat black. Pair it with warm timber, aged brass or pale stone to draw out the weave’s quiet tonal depth.

A compact charcoal-black weave with subtle directional texture for tailored upholstery.

Pairs well with

Very Lava 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.
