Lucca Ash

Alonso FabricCCF0390-02

Lucca Ash is a deep, smoky charcoal-taupe textile with a finely granular plain weave. Its softly mottled surface gives the dark colour a restrained ashiness rather than a flat black appearance.

About this fabric

The close, even weave is visible across the swatch as a subtle grain, with tiny tonal shifts that soften the charcoal-brown base. At 386gsm, Lucca Ash has a substantial handle suited to upholstery applications. It has a 140cm usable width and a 30m standard length, while both vertical and horizontal pattern repeats are 0cm. The quiet, motif-free surface lets the cool ash tone provide depth without introducing a visible pattern.

How to use it

Use Lucca Ash on a sofa, headboard or occasional chair where its cool charcoal-taupe depth can balance pale stone, warm oak and muted natural textiles.

Use this deep charcoal-taupe plain weave to ground upholstered seating and complement warmer timber or softly coloured walls.

Pairs well with

Lucca Ash 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.
