About this fabric

The surface reads as a dense, closely woven ground, broken by tiny grey-silver flecks that prevent the shade from appearing flat. Rather than a patterned motif, the design relies on subtle variation in the dark yarns and the way the nap-like texture catches light. This weighty-looking construction makes it best suited to upholstery, where the Midnight tone can define a chair, sofa or headboard with understated authority. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification.

How to use it

Use M678 Midnight on tailored seating against chalk, stone or warm timber to bring definition without a stark blue-black contrast. Its cool charcoal tone also works as a grounding layer with brushed metal and softly textured neutrals.

A near-black, finely mottled textile that brings quiet depth to tailored upholstery and contrast to lighter interiors.

Pairs well with

M678 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.
