Forenza Liquorice

Name: Forenza Liquorice
Brand: Romo

Deep and almost matte, Forenza Liquorice presents a near-black face with subtle tonal movement across its surface. Its restrained texture keeps the colour from looking completely flat while preserving a dark, tailored impression.

About this fabric

Liquorice reads as a deep charcoal-black rather than a flat, blue-black, with faint tonal variation visible across the close, understated surface. The image shows a plain, finely textured face without a discernible motif, allowing the near-black tone to carry the design. No composition, width, rub test or performance features are supplied for this colourway, so suitability should be confirmed against the intended application.

How to use it

Use this near-black charcoal tone to bring depth to tailored upholstery, pairing it with chalky neutrals, pale timber or softly metallic accents. Its quiet surface texture will sit comfortably within both restrained monochrome schemes and richer, layered rooms.

A near-black, subtly textured textile for tailored upholstery and high-contrast interiors.

Pairs well with

Forenza Liquorice 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.
