About this fabric
The plain surface has a subtle, tight grain rather than a visible motif, giving the colourway a quiet, tactile character. Its dark brown tone looks almost black-brown in the deeper creases, while the curved ridges catch a warmer cocoa glow. The fabric is shown gathered into substantial, fluid folds, indicating a versatile cloth that can work across upholstery and drapery. No additional performance specification has been supplied for this colourway.
How to use it
Pair this deep espresso shade with warm timber, aged brass and softly lit neutral walls; on seating it will create a grounded, tailored look, while curtains will emphasise its tonal depth as the folds catch the light.
Use this deep espresso tone to add quiet depth to tailored upholstery or full, softly folded curtains.

Pairs well with
Marvellous Tarmac 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.
