About this fabric

The swatch is richly brown, moving between espresso and warmer chestnut tones across a dense, mottled ground. Fine cloudy variation and faint vertical movement are visible in the surface, giving the dark colour a softly brushed, almost plush appearance. The low-contrast texture keeps the design understated while allowing the changing brown tones to catch the light gently. As a fabric SKU with no further performance specification supplied, its substantial-looking surface is best visually suited to upholstered furniture.

How to use it

Use 1116/12 on a generous armchair, sofa or headboard where its deep chocolate tone can create a cocooning focal point. Balance the dark brown with oat, parchment or warm stone upholstery accents to bring out its softer chestnut notes.

Pair this deep chocolate brown with warm timber, aged metal and softly contrasting neutrals for a rich, enveloping upholstery scheme.

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.
