Town Abyss

Town Abyss is a deep blue-teal textile with an almost solid appearance and a finely woven surface. The colour sits between blue and green, reading dark, cool and quietly atmospheric in the swatch.

About this fabric

The close-up shows a fine, understated crossweave, with subtle tonal variation rather than a printed motif. Its saturated blue-teal face is softened by a charcoal cast, giving the cloth depth without visible shine. The weave remains even across the surface, creating a calm, tailored impression. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification.

How to use it

Use this cool, deep blue-teal on a statement armchair, sofa or full-length curtain where its dark tone can anchor paler timber, stone and warm neutral furnishings. Its near-solid texture also works well for cushions when a room needs colour without a visible pattern.

A deep blue-teal plain weave that brings quiet depth to upholstery, curtains or cushions.

Pairs well with

Town 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.
