About this fabric

Dante Ebano is catalogued as a Velvet, and the photographed swatch has a dense, even surface without a visible motif. Its ebony-brown tone reads almost black at the edges and warmer brown through the centre, where the nap catches a restrained sheen. No performance features or further specification data are supplied for this colourway.

How to use it

Use this dark, warm brown on a tailored sofa or accent chair where its subdued nap can add depth without introducing a pattern. It is especially effective alongside aged timber, bronze and softly lit neutral walls.

A rich ebony-brown velvet for tailored seating, bringing depth and a restrained sheen to darker interiors.

Pairs well with

Dante 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.
