Boutin Ebony

Name: Boutin Ebony
Brand: Warwick

Boutin Ebony is a deep charcoal-black textile with a densely mottled surface, where taupe-grey flecks soften the near-black ground. The folded swatch shows a tactile woven texture that shifts subtly as the raised folds catch the light.

About this fabric

This colourway is built around an ebony-toned ground, punctuated by irregular taupe and grey flecks rather than a clean, uniform black. Fine contrasting marks create a small-scale, weathered pattern across the surface, while the weave gives it a softly ridged, tactile character. In the folds, the fabric reads especially deep and shadowed, with lighter threads emerging across the curved highlights. Its substantial-looking woven appearance makes it well suited to upholstery applications where a dark, textured finish is desired.

How to use it

Use Boutin Ebony on a statement armchair, sofa or dining seat, balancing its charcoal depth with natural oak, brushed metal and warm stone tones. Its flecked surface can also add quiet visual texture to a predominantly neutral room.

Pair the charcoal-black ground with warm timber, aged leather and quiet neutral upholstery for a layered, tailored scheme.

Boutin Ebony 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.
