Ion Graphite

Ion Fabric

Ion Graphite is a deep, cool grey textile with a subtly clouded surface. Its close-woven texture shifts gently between charcoal and softer graphite tones rather than reading as a flat solid.

About this fabric

The fabric shows a fine, tightly textured weave with irregular smoky areas distributed across the surface. Its graphite base has a restrained charcoal depth, while lighter grey threads catch the light across the woven grain. The low-contrast mottling gives the colourway a quietly weathered, tactile appearance without introducing a defined motif. This balanced mid-tone can work across upholstery and drapery where a dark, understated textile is required.

How to use it

Pair Ion Graphite with pale stone, chalk or warm timber to soften its cool depth, or layer it with black metal and charcoal accents for a more architectural scheme. Its tonal surface is especially effective on clean-lined seating, cushions or simple curtains.

Use this cool, dark graphite weave to add quiet depth to contemporary upholstery, curtains or cushions.

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.
