Hackney Jet Black

Hackney Fabric

Hackney Jet Black is a deep charcoal-black textile with a finely woven surface that gives the colour more depth than a completely flat solid. Its restrained texture shifts gently as it catches the light.

About this fabric

The swatch shows a near-black charcoal ground worked with a close, subtly irregular weave. Fine tonal variation prevents the surface from appearing featureless, while the dark shade absorbs and softly reflects light across the cloth. The visible, substantial-looking weave gives this textile an upholstery-led character. No composition, width, rub-test rating or performance features are supplied for this exact fabric, so those details should be confirmed before ordering.

How to use it

Use Hackney Jet Black on a structured armchair, sofa or dining seat where its charcoal depth can anchor a room. Balance the near-black tone with warm timber, pale stone or softly brushed metal for contrast.

A quietly textured jet-black weave for tailored upholstery and dramatic monochrome schemes.

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.
