About this fabric

The plain surface is visually rich without a motif, with a softly brushed texture that catches light unevenly across the folds. Its cool slate-grey tone feels calm and architectural, moving from smoky mid-grey to deeper charcoal where the fabric turns away from the light. The image shows a supple cloth with enough body to form rounded, substantial drapes, making it particularly suited to upholstered furniture. No further specification data has been supplied for composition, width, rub test or performance, so those details should be confirmed before ordering.

How to use it

Use Lovely Slate on a sofa, headboard or occasional chair where its cool grey depth can anchor a room without the hardness of black. Pair it with pale stone, chalky whites and brushed metal, or introduce warm timber and muted rust accents to balance the shade.

The cool slate tone and softly lustrous, velvet-like surface bring understated depth to upholstered seating.

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.
