About this fabric

The dense-looking pile catches the light in irregular, cloudy streaks, giving this dark colourway a tactile, subtly weathered appearance rather than a flat black finish. Made from 24% cotton and 76% polyester, it is approximately 137cm wide and specified for curtains and fixed upholstery. Its Contract and General Domestic upholstery grades make it suitable for seating applications, while the substantial velvet handle also translates well to drapery. After-care is dry clean, and the supplied tags identify it as stain resistant.

How to use it

Use Dusk on a buttoned sofa, headboard or occasional chair where its charcoal depth can anchor a room, pairing it with pale stone, smoked glass or warm timber. As curtains, its smoky grey nap will soften strong daylight without introducing a noticeable pattern.

Pairs well with

Cosmos Velvet Dusk 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.
