About this fabric

This catalogued fabric is woven in a very dark brown shade, with subtle warm brown flecks appearing between the deeper threads. The small-scale herringbone pattern is visible without becoming decorative or busy, giving the cloth a composed, tailored character. Its low-contrast surface absorbs much of the light while allowing occasional threads to catch softly. The result is a rich, understated colourway with considerable visual depth.

How to use it

Use Chocolate - 2002/16 on a structured armchair, sofa or dining seat where its dark chocolate tone can provide a grounded, tailored anchor. Pair it with warm timber, aged brass and lighter neutral walls to keep the near-black brown from feeling heavy.

Its near-black chocolate tone and fine herringbone texture suit tailored upholstery and quietly refined interiors.

Chocolate - 2002/16 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.
