W3254/B02 is a deep charcoal-black textile with a restrained, almost tonal appearance. Fine vertical movement across the surface keeps the shade from reading as a completely flat black.

About this fabric

The close woven surface shows delicate vertical striations and slight tonal variation, creating quiet depth within the near-black ground. Its dark charcoal tone reads cool and understated, while the softly textured face catches the light just enough to reveal the weave. The even, dense-looking construction gives this colourway a versatile mid-weight appearance for either upholstery or drapery. With no contrasting motif, it works as a refined textural plain rather than a decorative pattern.

How to use it

Use this near-black charcoal on a tailored chair, sofa or full-length curtain where its fine vertical texture can soften the severity of a dark scheme. Pair it with pale stone, warm timber or brushed metal to bring out the subtle tonal lift in the weave.

A deep charcoal-black woven texture that brings quiet definition to upholstery, curtains and layered neutral schemes.

W3254/B02 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.
