Bohemian Ash

Bohemian Ash is a deep charcoal plain with a tightly woven, low-key texture that reads clean and composed in the swatch. The overall effect is a cool, shadowy grey that feels understated rather than flat.

About this fabric

This colourway shows a dark charcoal ground with subtle tonal variation across the weave, giving the surface a dry, lightly pebbled handle in appearance. Made from 100% polyester, it is specified for contract use and carries a 40,000 Martindale rating, making it a practical choice for demanding seating. The fabric is supplied back coated to Cigarette & Match to BS5852, with other treatments available on request, and after care is professional dry clean in situ. Its muted grey-black depth keeps the plain design refined and versatile, while the visible texture adds just enough interest to stop it from feeling severe.

How to use it

Use Bohemian Ash on sofas, banquette seating or office chairs where a darker neutral needs to look crisp and hard-working. It pairs well with pale timbers, brushed metal and warmer accent colours that lift the charcoal base.

A compact dark neutral that gives seating a tailored, practical finish.

Bohemian Ash 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.
