Sansone Antracite

Name: Sansone Antracite
Brand: Dedar
SKU: 015

Sansone Antracite presents as a near-black charcoal velvet with a softly varied surface rather than a completely flat tone. The close, plain face catches the light subtly across the swatch, revealing the direction of its nap.

About this fabric

This Dedar velvet has a smooth, unpatterned appearance in a cool anthracite grey that borders on black in the deeper areas of the swatch. Fine tonal shifts across the face give the cloth a gentle depth, while the low sheen keeps the finish restrained rather than glossy. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification, so its visual character is the defining feature here.

How to use it

Use Sansone Antracite on a tailored sofa, club chair or dining seat where its deep charcoal tone can anchor a room without the starkness of true black. Pair it with pale stone, warm wood or brushed metal to bring out the velvet’s subtle surface variation.

A dense-looking anthracite velvet with a quietly refined, tailored character.

Pairs well with

Sansone Antracite 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.
