About this fabric
The swatch shows a dark grey textile with a near-black depth, softened by slender vertical striations in the weave. Its surface reads as finely woven rather than smooth, with gentle changes in tone catching the light across the cloth. This colourway is catalogued as Fabric, and no composition, width or performance specification has been supplied. The restrained pattern and dense-looking texture give it a smart, architectural character for upholstery.
How to use it
Use Grey Seal on a statement armchair, sofa or dining seat where its cool charcoal tone can anchor pale walls, natural timber and brushed metal. Pair it with chalky neutrals to keep the room crisp, or introduce warm leather and timber to soften its depth.
Use this deep charcoal shade to bring quiet contrast and tailored depth to upholstered seating.

Pairs well with
Ruskin Grey Seal 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.
