About this fabric

The dense herringbone is formed from alternating tobacco and black threads, creating fine chevrons that read as richly shaded rather than brightly contrasted. Its dark brown ground feels warm and grounded, while the black accents add definition and depth across the surface. The close weave has a tactile, structured appearance suited to upholstery. This piece is catalogued as a Fabric in the Misc (Moons) collection, with no performance features noted in the supplied data.

How to use it

Pair this deep tobacco-and-black colourway with warm timber, aged leather and muted neutral upholstery for a considered, tailored room scheme. Its small-scale herringbone is especially effective on chairs, ottomans and other pieces where the woven texture can be seen up close.

Use this deep, earthy herringbone to bring tailored warmth and visual depth to upholstered seating.
