6304/A01

About this fabric

The image shows a tightly woven, fine herringbone with a small, regular chevron rhythm rather than a printed motif. Charcoal, taupe and softened brown threads mingle across the surface, giving the cloth a cool, smoky depth with lighter flecks catching between the darker lines. This colourway reads quietly tailored and substantial, with enough tonal variation to keep the dark neutral from looking flat. It is catalogued as a fabric in the Misc (Moons) collection, with no performance features noted.

How to use it

Use this charcoal-taupe colourway on a tailored armchair, sofa or dining seat where its fine herringbone can add quiet pattern. Warm oak, tobacco leather and ivory textiles will bring out the softer brown notes in the weave.

Pair this dark taupe herringbone with warm timber, aged leather or softly contrasting neutral upholstery.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside 6304/A01 without fighting it. 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.
