About this fabric

Acer 14 - Ink is a plain textile with a compact, closely set weave visible across the swatch. Its ink-blue ground is softened by grey and pale flecks in the yarns, creating cool, gently mottled depth rather than a flat solid colour. The small-scale texture catches the light in tiny points, while the dense appearance gives it a structured upholstery character. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification.

How to use it

Use this blue-grey colourway on a tailored armchair, dining seat or compact sofa where its cool depth can anchor lighter timber, stone and warm neutral finishes. Its finely flecked surface also works well with brushed metal and soft grey accessories.

Acer 14 - Ink 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.
