Hackney Chocolate

Hackney Chocolate presents a deep, warm brown ground with a finely woven surface that reads as subtly crosshatched in close view. Its restrained texture gives the colour visual depth without introducing a distinct motif.

About this fabric

The chocolate tone is rich and earthy, with lighter threads catching across the surface to soften the depth of the brown. A tight, small-scale weave creates the visible crosshatched effect and gives this plain textile a gently tactile character. The structured appearance makes it well suited to upholstery, particularly where a quiet, textural finish is preferred over a printed pattern. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification.

How to use it

Use Hackney Chocolate on an armchair, sofa or dining seat to add a grounded, warm-brown note to a room. Pair it with cream, tan, aged brass or darker timber to draw out the colour’s earthy depth.

A deep chocolate-brown woven texture that brings quiet warmth and depth to upholstered seating.

Pairs well with

Hackney Chocolate 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.
