About this fabric

Catalogued in Dedar’s Upholstery fabrics collection, this colourway has a substantial-looking woven construction suited to the visual weight expected of upholstery cloth. The close, nubby texture creates irregular horizontal movement rather than a sharp printed motif, while scattered pale fibres add grain and depth to the dark ground. Ardesia reads cool and quietly dramatic, shifting between charcoal, graphite and black as the textured surface catches the light. The restrained tonal variation gives the fabric presence without introducing a bright or contrasting colour.

How to use it

Use this cool charcoal-grey colourway on a tailored sofa, armchair or headboard where its dense texture can soften a dark scheme. Pair it with pale stone, weathered timber or brushed metal to bring out the subtle silver-grey flecks.

Wuthering Wind Ardesia 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.
