Tone Lead
Tone Fabric
Tone Lead is a deep charcoal-grey textile with a quiet, almost graphite-like presence. Its close plain weave gives the surface subtle tonal variation rather than a visible pattern.

About this fabric
The fabric is catalogued as a textile fabric, and the image shows a dense, even weave with a soft mottled effect across the charcoal ground. Its low-sheen surface absorbs light, allowing the grey to read as calm, cool and tailored rather than glossy or dramatic. No performance features are noted in the supplied information. The understated texture gives plain upholstered forms a little more depth without introducing a decorative motif.
How to use it
Use Tone Lead on a sofa, headboard or occasional chair where its cool charcoal tone can anchor lighter walls, pale timber and brushed metal. Pair it with warm ivory or muted taupe accents to soften the depth of the grey.
A deep charcoal plain weave that brings quiet definition and a tailored feel to upholstered seating.

Pairs well with
Tone Lead 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.
