Ember Slate
Volume Fabric
Ember Slate has a deep charcoal-slate ground animated by dense pale flecks across the surface. The fine, irregular contrast gives the swatch a granular woven character rather than a printed motif.

About this fabric
This Kirkby Design Volume colourway is catalogued as a fabric, with no performance features noted. Its near-charcoal slate tone reads cool and settled, while the scattered white and soft-grey flecks add visible lift without making the overall colour bright. The closely textured surface gives the cloth a substantial, upholstery-oriented appearance. No further specification data, including composition, width or rub rating, has been supplied for this exact fabric.
How to use it
Use Ember Slate on a contemporary sofa, occasional chair or headboard where its cool charcoal depth can anchor a room. Pair it with chalky whites, pale timber and brushed metal to pick up the small light flecks without losing its darker, tailored mood.
Use this deep slate-grey flecked weave to give upholstery a modern, quietly tailored finish.

Pairs well with
Ember Slate 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.
