About this fabric

The image shows a close, fine weave with a restrained grain and a low-contrast surface that absorbs most of the light. Rather than appearing stark, this colourway reads as deep charcoal, with subtle tonal variation across the face. Its even, visually substantial texture makes it a strong upholstery choice. No performance features or further technical specifications are supplied.

How to use it

Pair this charcoal-black colourway with pale timber, stone and soft neutrals to create contrast without harshness. It also works as a grounding upholstery fabric alongside brushed metal and warm lighting.

Use its charcoal-black depth to ground contemporary upholstery and bring subtle woven texture to the room.

7861/X657 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.
