About this fabric

Catalogued as a Fabric from Dedar’s Fire-retardant collection, Zen Ebano is shown here as a dense, structured textile rather than a fluid cloth. Its almost-black ebony ground is softened by closely packed grey pinpoints, creating a restrained linear effect across the face. The fine vertical rhythm catches the light gently, adding texture without introducing a strong decorative pattern.

How to use it

Use this near-black colourway on tailored seating, dining chairs or a statement ottoman where its fine vertical texture can read against pale timber, warm stone or softly contrasting upholstery.

The deep ebony tone and fine vertical micro-weave bring a tailored, quietly graphic finish to upholstered seating.

Pairs well with

Zen Ebano 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.
