About this fabric

Aberdeen - Sea is catalogued as a fabric, with no performance features noted. In the image, its dense-looking surface is formed by tiny interlaced fibres and understated mottling rather than a printed motif. The cool graphite tone reads almost black in the deeper areas, while the weave catches the light with faint grey variation. This restrained texture keeps the colour from appearing flat while preserving a clean, tailored impression.

How to use it

Use this deep charcoal grey on a structured sofa, armchair or dining seat where its fine weave can add depth without introducing a visible pattern. Pair it with pale stone, smoky grey or warm timber to soften the near-black tone.

Its deep charcoal tone and fine woven texture suit tailored upholstery in dark, tonal schemes.

Pairs well with

Aberdeen - Sea 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.
