Fossil

Santushti Carpet

Fossil presents a layered charcoal-and-ash grey surface with the weathered, mineral quality its name suggests. Irregular horizontal striations and a compact, nubby texture give the close-up a tactile, softly rugged character.

About this fabric

The face is built from closely worked fibres, creating a dense-looking surface where lighter threads catch across deeper grey ground. Uneven horizontal bands give the colourway subtle movement without introducing a formal motif. The supplied catalogue identifies this textile as Carpet, with no further composition, width or performance data provided. Its substantial visual weight and tactile pile-like texture make it read as an upholstery-suitable material.

How to use it

Use Fossil on a generously upholstered chair, headboard or sofa where its cool stone-grey tone can anchor warmer wood and soften black or charcoal accents. Pair the irregular weave with smooth leather, brushed metal or plain linens to let the texture provide the room’s quiet depth.

A dense, tactile grey textile that brings quiet depth to upholstered forms.

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.
