About this fabric

The photographed fabric reads as charcoal grey at first glance, deepening towards black in the denser areas of its fine, grainy texture. Subtle tonal variation across the surface keeps the dark shade from appearing completely uniform, while the low-key texture catches the light gently. This is a fabric from Dedar’s Upholstery fabrics collection and is catalogued as a textile suitable for upholstery. No composition, width or rub-test specification has been supplied for this exact listing.

How to use it

Use Chapeau Ebano on a tailored sofa, occasional chair or headboard where its deep charcoal tone can anchor a room without introducing a visible pattern. Pair it with warm timber, soft ivory and brushed metal to bring out the fabric’s restrained surface depth.

A near-black charcoal tone with subtle surface variation, suited to tailored upholstery and quietly dramatic interiors.

Pairs well with

Chapeau 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.
