About this fabric

This colourway is a dense, near-black graphite grey, softened by the velvet pile rather than appearing flat or glossy. Made from 100% Polyester Fr, it is 140 cm (55 inches) wide and specified for fixed upholstery. Its 100,000 Martindale rub test makes it suitable for hard-working upholstered seating. Care instructions are to dry clean professionally only; it must not be washed, bleached or ironed.

How to use it

Use the cool, deep graphite tone on a sofa, dining chair or upholstered headboard where its velvety surface can add depth without introducing a pattern. Pair it with pale stone, warm timber or brushed metal to bring definition to the dark grey shade.

A deep, light-absorbing graphite velvet for tailored, high-use upholstery.

Pairs well with

Baker House Fr Velvet Graphite 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.
