About this fabric

The dense weave reads as charcoal rather than flat jet black, with softly lifted grey highlights along the raised folds. A small, even crosshatch structure gives the surface a quietly tactile appearance without introducing a visible motif. The fabric’s structured look makes it suited to upholstery, particularly where a deep, tailored finish is wanted. No composition, width, rub-test or performance specification has been supplied for this colourway.

How to use it

Use Pitchblack on a tailored sofa, dining chair or occasional seat where its deep charcoal tone can anchor a room. Pair it with warm timber, brushed metal or lighter textured textiles to reveal the weave’s subtle contrast.

Use this deep charcoal-black weave to bring tailored depth to contemporary upholstery.

Obscura Pitchblack 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.
