Porter & Stone

Arley Stripe Charcoal

Misc Fabric

Arley Stripe Charcoal has a clean, tailored stripe that reads sharply against a soft grey ground. The contrast feels graphic without looking harsh, thanks to the woven texture and slightly muted finish.

About this fabric

This Porter & Stone fabric is woven in 96% cotton and 4% polyester, with a 140cm width and a 0cm vertical by 6.5cm horizontal pattern repeat. The design shows narrow charcoal stripes spaced across a pale grey ground, creating a disciplined, hotel-like rhythm rather than a bold statement stripe. The weave has a dry, lightly textural surface that softens the dark bands and keeps the overall look refined. With no performance features noted and care code NQT1<, it is a straightforward decorative textile with a smart, understated character.

How to use it

Use it on a tailored armchair, dining banquette or simple curtains where the charcoal contrast can sharpen neutral schemes. It sits well with slate, oak and off-white finishes, especially in rooms that need a crisp, orderly edge.

A crisp charcoal stripe that feels tailored and easy to pair with timber, linen and plain upholstery.

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