Odyssey Fabric15

Odyssey Flint is a deep charcoal plain with a subtly mottled surface that softens the overall grey. The finish reads cool and grounded, with just enough tonal movement to keep the cloth from looking flat.

About this fabric

This colourway in the Odyssey collection has a dark, flint-like grey ground with soft smoky variation across the surface, giving it a restrained, modern look. The visible texture is smooth rather than slubby, but the tonal shifts add a gentle depth that catches light without becoming shiny. It is made from 100% polyester and specified for contract use, with a 50,000 Martindale rating for demanding upholstery schemes. Supplied back coated to Cigarette & Match to BS5852, it is a practical choice where a smart, understated plain is needed. Professional dry clean in situ is recommended, with further care guidance available in the pattern book.

How to use it

Use Flint on clean-lined sofas, banquettes or office seating where a darker grey can ground paler walls and timber finishes. Its cool charcoal tone pairs especially well with stone, black metal and muted teal accents.

A cool charcoal plain that brings depth and practicality to tailored seating.

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.
