Brand: Dedar

Untitled 1948 City Lights is a densely woven Dedar jacquard built from charcoal and black ground tones, interrupted by cream, taupe and ochre geometric marks. Its compact, irregular blocks create the impression of a small abstract city seen in sections.

About this fabric

The colourway reads predominantly cool and dark, with charcoal and black forming a deep background for fine cream lines, muted taupe panels and occasional ochre glints. Rectangular blocks, broken stripes and tightly repeated grid marks give the surface a layered architectural rhythm rather than a single flat motif. The close weave appears substantial and tactile in the swatch, making it best suited to upholstery. No composition, width or rub-test figure is supplied for this listing, and no performance features are noted.

How to use it

Use it on a sculptural armchair, ottoman or statement sofa where the charcoal ground can anchor a room. Echo the cream and taupe lines with pale stone finishes, then pick up the restrained ochre accents in cushions or ceramics.

Use this dark, architectural jacquard to bring layered texture and graphic definition 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.
