Sukkari - Acajou

Name: Sukkari - Acajou
Brand: Lelievre
SKU: 3242-05

Sukkari - Acajou combines a near-black ground with warm acajou-brown ripples, creating a richly shaded, tactile textile. The tightly packed organic pattern gives the swatch a distinctive, almost animal-like movement.

About this fabric

The surface is dominated by deep brown-black tones, while narrow acajou lines wind across it in irregular, closely spaced contours. The small-scale pattern has an organic, rippling quality, with uneven shapes that create visual depth rather than a regular repeat. Subtle shifts in the woven texture catch the light, allowing the warm brown to emerge against the darker ground.

How to use it

Use this deep mahogany colourway on a statement chair, ottoman or sofa where its dark, animated pattern can add warmth without relying on bright colour. Balance it with aged timber, tobacco leather and softly lit neutral walls.

Use the deep mahogany-brown ground to bring graphic warmth and depth to upholstered seating.

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.
