About this fabric

The close, fine weave gives this colourway a largely plain appearance, while the gathered surface creates gentle tonal movement rather than a visible motif. Its charcoal-black ground reads softer than a flat jet black, with the folds catching a muted graphite sheen. The lightweight-looking cloth gathers easily into narrow ripples and broad, relaxed drapes. This dark, low-contrast finish gives the fabric a luxurious and quietly atmospheric character.

How to use it

Use Marvellous Silhouette for full-height curtains or generous wave folds in rooms that suit a deep charcoal backdrop. Pair it with warm timber, pale stone or brushed metal to bring definition to its softly shifting black tone.

Use its deep charcoal-black tone for full-length curtains where the fluid folds and subtle sheen can add quiet drama.

Pairs well with

Marvellous Silhouette 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.
