Leoni Onyx

Leoni Fabric

Leoni Onyx presents a near-black charcoal ground with a fine vertical texture running across the surface. Its softly varied weave keeps the deep tone from appearing flat, giving the colourway a restrained sense of depth.

About this fabric

The close-up shows narrow vertical ribs and subtle tonal variation within the charcoal-black weave, rather than a printed motif. Fine lighter threads catch across the surface, creating a gently brushed, linear effect against the darker ground. The overall impression is cool, understated and tailored, with enough texture to prevent the onyx shade feeling severe. This listing is catalogued as Fabric, with no performance features noted for this colourway.

How to use it

Use Leoni Onyx on a structured sofa, armchair or dining seat where its deep charcoal tone can anchor a room. Pair it with pale stone, smoked timber or brushed metal to bring out the weave’s quiet linear definition.

Use this deep charcoal-black weave to give upholstery a tailored, quietly dramatic finish.

Pairs well with

Leoni Onyx 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.
