About this fabric

The colour reads as a muted charcoal grey, with a cooler, darker depth than a traditional warm grey. Fine vertical striations run through the ground, while irregular lighter and darker threads create a tactile, lightly weathered grain. The close-up shows a woven surface rather than a printed motif, giving the colourway understated visual movement. No composition, width or rub-test figures are supplied for this colourway, and no performance features are noted.

How to use it

Use Marea Grey Seal on a tailored armchair, dining chair or compact sofa where its cool charcoal tone can anchor pale stone walls, smoked oak and restrained metal accents.

Pair its cool charcoal-grey weave with pale stone, blackened timber and brushed metal for a composed, architectural scheme.

Marea 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.
