About this fabric

The colour reads as a saturated midnight blue, with darker areas settling into the pile and slightly lighter blue catching across the raised fibres. A close view shows an irregular, brush-like texture rather than a printed motif, giving this plain textile a tactile, softly broken surface. The dense appearance makes it best suited to upholstery applications. No composition, width or performance specification has been supplied for this colourway.

How to use it

Use Brush Midnight on a statement chair, headboard or compact sofa where its cool, dark blue tone can anchor paler walls and warm timber. Keep surrounding fabrics relatively quiet so the brushed surface remains the main source of variation.

Use this deep blue, tactile upholstery in a room that benefits from rich colour and softly varied texture.

Pairs well with

Brush Midnight 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.
