Patina Abyss

Patina Abyss reads as a deep, cool blue-green, close to midnight teal rather than a bright marine shade. Across the swatch, a fine plain weave creates a quiet grid, while subtle shifts in tone give the surface gently clouded depth.

About this fabric

The close-set horizontal and vertical threads form a small, even texture with a restrained woven character. Its near-charcoal blue-green ground absorbs light in the deeper areas, while finer threads catch it as muted teal highlights. No composition, width or rub-test data has been supplied for this colourway, so the visible construction is the clearest guide to its tailored upholstery character.

How to use it

Use Patina Abyss on a structured sofa, headboard or occasional chair where its cool, deep teal tone can act as a calm anchor. Pair it with pale stone, warm timber or softly weathered metal to bring out the subtle tonal variation in the weave.

The deep blue-green tone brings tailored depth to contemporary upholstery.

Pairs well with

Patina Abyss 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.
