Peaks Slate

Name: Peaks Slate

Peaks Slate has a cool, softly variegated grey ground marked by an all-over crumpled texture. The slate tone gives the surface a quiet, mineral quality, while the irregular highlights and shadows add depth.

About this fabric

The close-up shows overlapping, craggy forms in pale grey, charcoal-grey and slate, creating a tactile surface that resembles folded or weathered material. Its tonal variation is restrained rather than high-contrast, so the texture remains atmospheric across the swatch. Peaks Slate is catalogued as a fabric, with no performance features noted in the supplied specification. The dense, visually substantial surface makes it best suited to upholstery applications where this muted relief can be appreciated.

How to use it

Pair Peaks Slate with chalky whites, soft stone and charcoal accents for a cool, layered scheme. On a sofa, occasional chair or headboard, its crumpled slate-grey texture can add interest without introducing a strong graphic pattern.

Use this cool slate-grey texture on upholstery where its layered, crumpled surface can provide quiet visual 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.
