Duo 260

Weave Fabric

Duo 260 is shown here in a deep charcoal-black colourway, with the near-black tone giving the cloth a quiet, weighty presence. Its tightly woven surface creates a fine, subtly pebbled texture rather than a decorative motif.

About this fabric

The close, interlaced weave contains tiny tonal variations that stop the charcoal surface from appearing flat. Its low-sheen finish absorbs most of the light, while the raised weave catches just enough to reveal the cloth’s texture. No performance features are noted for this SKU; visually, its dense construction reads as particularly well suited to upholstery. The restrained blackened tone gives the fabric a tailored, architectural character.

How to use it

Use this deep charcoal on a structured armchair, sofa or headboard where its finely textured surface can add depth without introducing pattern. Pair it with warm timber, aged metal or lighter stone tones to prevent the near-black shade from feeling too stark.

A dense charcoal weave that brings tailored depth to upholstered seating and headboards.

Pairs well with

Duo 260 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.
