About this fabric

The close, even weave gives this textile a quietly tactile appearance, while the fluid folds suggest a lighter, drapery-friendly handle rather than a rigid upholstery cloth. Its cool charcoal-black colour reads softer than a flat true black where the light catches the raised folds, but returns to a deep near-black in the recesses. The supplied catalogue records no performance features for this fabric, so its appeal here is principally its understated tone and flowing surface. As a Warwick fabric from the Flanders collection, this colourway brings depth without introducing a visible pattern or contrast motif.

How to use it

Pair Flanders Coal with pale stone, chalk or warm timber finishes to balance its cool, near-black depth. It is especially effective as full-length curtains or relaxed gathered panels, where the fine weave can show tonal movement through the folds.

Use this deep coal shade for understated curtains or soft window treatments where its fine weave can fall into relaxed folds.

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.
