About this fabric

Nova Fr Jet Black is a near-black textile with very little colour variation at first glance, though close viewing reveals soft charcoal mottling across the surface. That restrained tonal movement keeps the black from reading as flat, while the low-contrast texture gives it quiet, tailored depth. The swatch looks visually dense and softly handled, making this colourway best suited to upholstery-led schemes. No composition, width, rub test or other performance specification has been supplied for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Use this deep jet black on a statement chair, sofa or headboard, balancing its shadowed tone with warm timber, pale stone or softly reflective metal.

Pair this deep black with warm timber, brushed metal or pale upholstery to bring out its subtle charcoal depth.

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.
