Helios in Ebene has a deep, almost black chocolate-brown tone, with subtle reddish warmth emerging across the surface. Its close weave creates a softly mottled, horizontal texture rather than a printed motif.

About this fabric

The image shows a dense-looking woven fabric with fine horizontal irregularities and gently shifting brown depth. Ebene reads as a dark, warm brown, with lighter threads catching intermittently against the shadowed ground. No performance features or further specification data are supplied for this fabric; the visible close weave makes it a strong upholstery candidate. The restrained texture gives the colour quiet richness without introducing a contrasting pattern.

How to use it

Use Ebene on a tailored sofa, headboard or occasional chair where its near-black chocolate tone can anchor warmer neutrals, walnut and aged brass. In low evening light, the subtly varied weave will add depth without competing with patterned furnishings.

Use this near-black chocolate brown as a grounding upholstery shade with warm wood, aged metal and softly lit rooms.

Pairs well with

Helios - Ebene 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.
