Nirvana Noir

Name: Nirvana Noir
Brand: Fryett's Fabrics

Nirvana Noir is a near-black plain with a subtle woven texture that softens the darkness rather than flattening it. The surface reads as deep charcoal with a dry, fabric-led finish and barely visible crossweave.

About this fabric

This colourway is a very dark neutral, with the blackened charcoal tone broken up by fine woven speckling that gives the cloth a quiet depth. The 80% polyester and 20% cotton composition helps explain the crisp, stable look of the weave, while the 140cm width and 0cm pattern repeat make it straightforward for cut-and-sew use. In the light, the cloth does not shine; instead it holds a matte, understated finish that keeps the shade controlled and tailored. It is a plain fabric with no repeat, so the visual interest comes from the texture rather than pattern.

How to use it

Use Nirvana Noir for a refined accent chair, bench seat, or paired curtains where a strong dark ground is needed without gloss. It sits especially well with pale woods, stone, and warm metallics for contrast.

A quiet dark neutral that works cleanly on tailored upholstery or simple drapery.

Pairs well with

Nirvana Noir 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.
