About this fabric

The close-up reveals a dense, regular grid of charcoal and lighter grey threads, giving the cloth its subtle checked texture. Its cool carbon tone has a restrained, contemporary mood, while the small-scale weave keeps the surface visually refined. The structured appearance makes it well suited to upholstery, particularly where a discreet textile texture is preferred over a pronounced pattern. No further specification data is supplied for this SKU, so the colour and visible weave are the defining features.

How to use it

Use this cool carbon grey on a sofa, dining chair or occasional chair to anchor a room without introducing a strong pattern. Pair it with pale grey, chalky white or weathered timber to draw out the lighter threads in the weave.

Use this cool carbon grey weave to bring quiet structure to upholstered seating.

M672 Carbon Grey 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.
