About this fabric

The colour reads as a dark lead grey with a cool, gently blue-green cast rather than a warm charcoal. A fine woven texture is visible across the surface, with delicate tonal variation that prevents the shade from looking completely flat. The low-contrast weave keeps the design plain and discreet, while the depth of colour gives it a smart, tailored appearance. As no further performance or composition specification has been supplied, this description is based on the visible cloth surface and colour.

How to use it

Use this cool lead grey on a sofa, armchair or dining seat where its restrained weave can support stronger colours, pale timber or softly contrasting neutral upholstery. Its deep tone is particularly effective in rooms that need visual weight without a glossy or patterned finish.

Use this deep, cool lead grey to give upholstered seating a quiet, tailored presence.

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.
