About this fabric

Supplied as a fabric from Dedar’s Upholstery fabrics collection, Parola Chocolat has no performance features or further specification data noted. The visible ground is a muted taupe-grey, with a fine, even woven appearance that gives the surface quiet depth rather than shine. A thick black motif cuts across the centre in an irregular, calligraphic shape, accompanied by a separate round dot. The contrast is strong but softened by the warm grey-brown undertone of the background.

How to use it

Use Parola Chocolat on a clean-lined occasional chair, headboard or statement cushion where its taupe-grey base can calm the high-contrast black graphic. Pair it with charcoal, walnut and warm stone tones to bring out the colourway’s grounded depth.

The restrained taupe-grey ground and graphic black mark suit tailored upholstery in contemporary, pared-back rooms.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Parola Chocolat 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.
