About this fabric

The close-set twill creates a fine, even rib rather than a pronounced pattern, giving the surface a quietly tailored appearance. This colourway is a rich chocolate brown with darker areas that add depth without breaking the overall solidity of the shade. The compact weave reads as substantial in the swatch image, making it best suited to upholstery within this classification. No composition, width, rub-test or other performance specification was supplied for this fabric.

How to use it

Use the deep chocolate tone on a structured chair, sofa or headboard to ground a room, pairing it with warm timber, ivory upholstery or muted rust accents. Its understated diagonal texture adds interest while keeping the overall look composed.

Use this deep chocolate brown to bring warmth and visual depth to tailored upholstery, especially alongside lighter neutrals or aged woods.

Pairs well with

Islay Twill Chocolate 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.
