Maison Ganache reads as a deep cocoa brown with a soft, velvety-looking surface and subtle lighter chestnut highlights as it folds. The shade feels cocooning and refined rather than flat or blackened.

About this fabric

Maison Ganache is a plain from the Maison collection by J Brown, woven in 100% polyester for heavy domestic use. It has a high 80,000 Martindale rating, making it a practical choice for everyday seating that still needs a polished finish. In this colourway, the cloth appears as a very dark cocoa brown with warm bronze-toned movement where the pile or texture catches the light. The overall effect is rich and subdued, with enough depth to soften large upholstered pieces without reading stark or glossy. It is supplied back coated to Cigarette & Match to BS5852, and professional dry clean in situ is recommended for care.

How to use it

Use this shade on sofas, armchairs or banquettes where you want a grounded, tailored look with warmth. It pairs especially well with oak, smoked timber, brass and creamy neutrals, letting the brown depth do the quiet heavy lifting.

A rich dark brown that works well on tailored seating and adds warmth to wood-led interiors.

Pairs well with

Maison Ganache 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.
