Leaf Ii Fabric

Leaf Carbon is a deep charcoal-grey fabric with a softly mottled surface that absorbs light rather than appearing glossy. Its low-contrast tonal variation gives the cloth depth while keeping the overall impression restrained and architectural.

About this fabric

The surface reads as a dense, matte textile in a carbon-grey shade, with fine irregular flecks and barely perceptible tonal movement across the swatch. Rather than presenting a strong visible motif, the colourway has a near-plain appearance that lets its subtle texture do the work. The dark neutral tone brings a cool, grounded quality to upholstered furniture and contrasts cleanly with lighter timber, stone and warm metallic finishes. No composition, width or rub-test information is supplied for this listing.

How to use it

Use Leaf Carbon on a tailored sofa, headboard or occasional chair where its deep grey tone can add weight without introducing a prominent pattern. Pair it with chalky neutrals for contrast, or layer it with blackened wood and smoked metal for a more tonal scheme.

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.
