Bohemian Ebony

Bohemian Ebony is a dark, quietly textured plain with a near-black finish that reads smart and grounded. The close weave gives the swatch a subtle grain rather than a flat solid surface.

About this fabric

This colourway sits firmly in deep ebony black, with a cool, shadowy tone that softens slightly where the weave catches the light. The visible texture is low-profile and nubby, giving the plain a tactile, contract-ready look without any strong sheen. Woven in 100% polyester, it is specified for contract use and offers a 40,000 Martindale, making it suitable for hard-working upholstery schemes. It is supplied back coated to Cigarette & Match to BS5852, with other treatments available on request, and should be professionally dry cleaned in situ.

How to use it

Use Bohemian Ebony on streamlined seating, banquettes or headboards where you want a crisp black anchor with a little texture. It pairs well with pale timber, brass and stone tones to keep the room feeling sharp rather than flat.

A dark, textured black that gives upholstery a clean, tailored edge.

Pairs well with

Bohemian Ebony 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.
