Dolly Ebony

Dolly Ebony is a near-black charcoal textile with a subtly mottled face. Its softly folded presentation reveals a dense surface with gentle tonal variation rather than a flat, uniform black.

About this fabric

The colour sits between deep charcoal and softened black, with fine lighter flecking that gives the surface quiet depth. Its closely textured face catches the light unevenly, creating a subdued peppered effect across the cloth. Broad folds in the swatch suggest a fabric with enough body for upholstery while retaining a soft, pliable appearance. The restrained colour keeps the overall impression sophisticated and understated.

How to use it

Use Dolly Ebony on a sofa, armchair or footstool where its charcoal-black tone can anchor lighter walls, timber and warm metallic accents. The subtle surface variation will prevent a dark upholstered piece from looking visually flat.

Use this deep charcoal-black textile to bring quiet contrast and tactile depth to upholstered seating.

Pairs well with

Dolly 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.
