M672 Midnight

Name: M672 Midnight
Brand: Mark Alexander

M672 Midnight is a near-black charcoal textile with a quiet, finely crosshatched weave. Its deep tone absorbs most of the light, while the close interlacing adds subtle surface movement.

About this fabric

The fabric reads as a cool midnight charcoal rather than a flat solid black, with tiny lighter threads visible across the woven ground. A compact horizontal-and-vertical weave creates a lightly pebbled, linen-like texture that can be seen clearly in the swatch. Its dark, even colouring gives the surface a smart and composed appearance. No performance features are noted for this fabric.

How to use it

Use M672 Midnight on a sofa, armchair or dining seat where its charcoal depth will create a strong architectural outline. Balance the near-black tone with ivory, chalky neutrals or warm brass so the fine weave remains visible.

Use this deep charcoal weave to give upholstery a grounded, tailored finish, pairing it with warm timber or pale stone for contrast.

M672 Midnight 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.
