Duo 111

Weave Fabric

Duo 111 presents a deep cocoa-brown ground with close, irregular flecks that give the surface softly mottled depth. Its compact weave reads tactile and finely grained rather than smooth or glossy.

About this fabric

This colourway sits in a deep brown range, with warmer umber highlights appearing between darker threads. The tiny, closely packed weave creates a pebbled texture and prevents the surface from reading as flat. Its dense, even appearance gives the swatch a substantial, upholstery-led character. No performance features are noted in the supplied information, so suitability should be considered against the requirements of the intended project.

How to use it

Use Duo 111 on a tailored sofa, armchair or dining seat where its deep cocoa tone can anchor a room without the sheen of velvet. It works particularly well with warm timber, aged brass, cream upholstery and lighter natural textures that pick up the weave’s umber flecks.

The dense cocoa-brown weave brings understated depth to tailored upholstery and pairs well with warm timber and neutral accents.

Pairs well with

Duo 111 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.
