CLAYTON Charcoal

CLAYTON Charcoal is a smooth, plain-woven fabric in a deep, even charcoal grey with a soft matte finish. The close weave gives the colour a quiet depth rather than a flat black look.

About this fabric

Made from 100% polyester, CLAYTON Charcoal has a usable width of 140cm and a Martindale rating of 20,000, making it suitable for general domestic upholstery as well as drapery and accessories. The surface reads as a dense charcoal grey with a subtle, textile-led grain that softens the overall effect. Its plain design and zero pattern repeat keep the look clean and practical, while the colour fastness rating of 5 supports everyday use. It is treatable for FR drapery and upholstery, adding flexibility for both residential furnishings and contract-minded schemes.

How to use it

Use this charcoal shade for tailored sofas, dining chairs, or full-length curtains where you want depth without shine. It pairs neatly with pale oak, crisp white, and muted taupe for a modern, grounded room.

A versatile charcoal that feels tailored and understated across curtains and upholstery.

Pairs well with

CLAYTON Charcoal 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.
