Colbie Slate
Elbury Fabric
Colbie Slate is a deep, cool slate-grey textile with a finely woven pattern of repeated narrow leaf or teardrop shapes. The close-set motif gives the surface a softly intricate appearance, while the dark ground keeps the overall impression restrained.

About this fabric
Catalogued as a fabric, Colbie Slate has a visibly woven surface rather than a smooth or printed finish. Its charcoal-slate tone is softened by lighter threads within the small repeating motif, creating subtle contrast across the swatch. The pattern reads as a dense vertical arrangement of delicate leaf-like forms, giving the cloth a quietly architectural rhythm. No additional composition, width, rub-test or performance specification has been supplied for this colourway.
How to use it
Use Colbie Slate where a room needs depth without a strong accent colour: it would bring a cool, tailored note to an upholstered chair or sofa, and its fine scale could also sit neatly across full-length curtains or blinds.
Its cool charcoal-slate ground and finely repeated motif bring quiet graphic depth to upholstery, curtains or blinds.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Colbie Slate without fighting it. 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.
