About this fabric

The close-up shows a dense woven face built from charcoal, graphite and fine silvery-grey threads, creating restrained depth across the surface. Its vertical and horizontal slubs form a subtle textile grid, while the slightly varied yarns keep the grey from looking flat or uniform. The substantial-looking weave reads particularly well as upholstery, where its dark neutral tone can bring definition to a chair, sofa or headboard. Salem is catalogued as Fabric, and no performance features are noted in the supplied information.

How to use it

Use Salem Charcoal on tailored seating where its cool, deep grey tone can anchor pale timber, black metal or softly coloured walls. Pair it with warm ivory and natural textures to prevent the charcoal weave from feeling too stark.

A dense charcoal weave with subtle tonal variation for tailored upholstery and contemporary neutral schemes.

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.
