Babylon Graphite

Misc Fabric

Babylon Graphite has a dark, smoky ground lifted by a fine gold-toned speckle that gives the pattern a low, metallic shimmer. The repeating motif reads crisp and tailored rather than soft or floral.

About this fabric

This Fabric from Porter & Stone’s Misc collection is woven in 95% polyester and 5% lurex, giving the surface a subtle glint where the light catches the yarns. At 140cm wide with a 24cm pattern repeat, it presents a structured, medium-scale geometric design that feels orderly and confident. The graphite ground is cool and deep, while the lighter flecking softens the contrast and stops the pattern from feeling heavy. Its woven texture and restrained shimmer make it a practical choice when you want pattern with a smarter, more polished edge. Care is NQT1<.

How to use it

Babylon Graphite works well on an accent chair, banquette or cushions where the dark base can anchor lighter upholstery. Pair it with pale timber, bronze and stone tones to highlight the cool graphite depth and metallic speck.

Use with oak, tan leather or warm brass to bring out the subtle metallic fleck.

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