About this fabric
The closely woven face appears low-sheen, with delicate vertical lines visible across the swatch rather than a pronounced pattern. Its brown base carries a cool plum cast, creating a shaded, atmospheric tone instead of a warm chocolate brown. The supplied specification identifies this SKU as a fabric, with no further composition, width or performance data noted. The dense-looking surface and restrained texture make it visually well suited to clean-lined upholstered forms.
How to use it
Pair this deep aubergine-brown colourway with chalky creams, warm stone and aged timber for contrast, or use it with charcoal and plum accents for a more enveloping scheme. It will bring particular depth to tailored chairs, benches or sofa upholstery.
Use the deep aubergine-brown tone to anchor tailored seating and balance lighter neutral furnishings.

Pairs well with
Mercury Fr Crib 5 Byzantium 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.
