Speck Noir

Name: Speck Noir
Brand: Kirkby Design

Speck Noir has a deep black ground animated by irregular white and soft grey flecks. Its close, uneven texture gives the surface a tactile, almost peppered appearance.

About this fabric

The colourway reads predominantly black, while scattered pale flecks break up the ground in small, loosely clustered marks. A visibly nubby, densely textured surface gives the fabric depth, with the lighter fibres catching against the darker base. The supplied record identifies this as a fabric and notes no performance features; no further specification data is supplied.

How to use it

Use Speck Noir to give a room a strong, graphic anchor on an armchair, dining seat or sofa, then soften its near-black tone with pale timber, chalky walls or warm metallic accents.

Use the near-black ground and crisp flecks to anchor contemporary seating or occasional upholstery.

Speck Noir 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.
