Kensey Slate
Kensey Fabric
Kensey Slate has a deep, cool grey ground with a finely structured surface that gives the colour noticeable depth. Subtle vertical tonal shifts keep the dark shade from reading as flat.

About this fabric
The close-up shows a dense, even weave with a tiny crosshatched texture and delicate light-and-dark variation across the surface. Its slate-grey tone sits between charcoal and blue-grey, creating a composed, modern appearance. Narrow vertical changes in the weave add quiet movement without forming a decorative motif. The substantial-looking texture and tailored finish make this colourway particularly well suited to upholstered furniture.
How to use it
Pair Kensey Slate with pale stone, chalky white or weathered timber to balance its cool depth. It would bring a restrained, architectural feel to a sofa, headboard or occasional chair.
Use this cool slate-grey weave to give upholstery a tailored, quietly architectural finish.

Pairs well with
Kensey Slate 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.
