About this fabric

Listed in Dedar’s Upholstery fabrics collection, Mappamundi Ebano has a dark brown ground crossed by irregular pale beige-grey marks. The broken lines vary in length and direction, creating an abstract, lightly weathered pattern rather than a regular repeat. Its visible woven grid and softly contrasting strokes make the colourway feel substantial, graphic and quietly expressive.

How to use it

Use Ebano on a tailored armchair, sofa or dining seat where its espresso tone can anchor lighter walls and natural timber. Pair it with warm neutrals and chalky upholstery accents to echo the pale marks without competing with the pattern.

Use this deep brown ground to bring graphic contrast and tactile depth to tailored upholstery.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Mappamundi Ebano without fighting it. 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.
