About this fabric

Woven in 100% polyester, this Haworth design has a usable width of 140cm and a 20,000 Martindale, making it suitable for general domestic upholstery as well as drapery and accessories. The visible pattern reads as staggered chevrons and narrow striations, with charcoal bands broken up by warm taupe and pale grey highlights. Its surface looks crisp rather than plush, so the darker tones sit close and grounded while lighter threads catch the folds. It is treatable for FR drapery and upholstery, with colour fastness of 5 for dependable everyday use.

How to use it

Use this charcoal colourway on upholstered chairs, ottomans or Roman blinds where the woven pattern can add movement without feeling busy. It pairs especially well with oak, black accents and soft plaster or stone-toned walls.

A versatile charcoal weave that balances neatly with warm wood, stone and pale neutrals.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside COTTINGLEY Charcoal 2 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.
