Lars Plain Shadow is a deep charcoal-grey plain with a finely mottled, cross-woven surface. Its near-black depth is lifted by tiny cooler and lighter threads visible across the weave.

About this fabric

The close, understated weave gives this colourway a softly textured appearance rather than a flat black finish, with subtle tonal variation catching across the surface. Supplied at approximately 137cm wide, it is specified for fixed upholstery in Contract and General Domestic settings. Its listed composition is 15% Linen, 20% Acrylic, 20% Viscose and 40% Cotton. Professional dry cleaning only is recommended.

How to use it

Use Shadow on a tailored sofa, dining chair or ottoman where its deep charcoal tone can anchor a room without the starkness of pure black. Pair it with pale stone, warm timber or brushed metal to bring out the weave’s restrained tonal variation.

A deep charcoal neutral for tailored seating, softened by its subtly mottled woven surface.

Pairs well with

Lars Plain Shadow 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.
