Plush Dark Ink brings the Plush II collection into a deep, cool blue-grey with a charcoal cast. Its close, softly mottled surface has a quiet plushness that absorbs and reflects light unevenly across the cloth.

About this fabric

Plush Dark Ink is a deep ink blue with a smoky charcoal undertone, rather than a bright or clean navy. The image shows a short, velvety-looking pile with subtle tonal variation and no visible printed motif, creating depth through the nap alone. Its substantial-looking plush texture makes it best suited to upholstery. No further composition, width, rub-test or performance specification is supplied for this fabric.

How to use it

Use this cool, shadowed blue-grey on a statement chair, sofa or headboard, pairing it with pale stone, warm timber or brushed metal so the plush surface remains the room’s deepest note.

A deep, cool blue-grey plush for statement upholstery, bringing shadowed depth to lighter stone, timber and metallic accents.

Pairs well with

Plush Dark Ink 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.
