Bolero Mono

Name: Bolero Mono
Brand: Fryett's Fabrics

Bolero Mono is a tightly woven monochrome fabric with a fine grid-like surface and a crisp, speckled finish. The charcoal ground is lifted by pale ivory flecks, giving the colourway a sharp, contemporary contrast.

About this fabric

This exact colourway reads as deep charcoal black with scattered ivory highlights, so the pattern sits quietly at a distance and becomes more textural up close. The small geometric weave has a dry, structured look that suits the fabric’s 145cm width and zero pattern repeat, making it straightforward to work into a scheme. With a composition of 70% recycled polyester and 30% polyester, it offers a practical synthetic blend with a clean, tailored appearance. The overall effect is smart and disciplined rather than shiny, with the light catching on the lighter threads to create a subtle salt-and-pepper lift.

How to use it

Use this charcoal weave on an accent chair, ottoman or bench where you want a neat, graphic finish. It pairs especially well with pale woods, brushed metal and soft neutrals that let the ivory flecks stand out.

A crisp monochrome weave that adds texture without overpowering a scheme.

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.
