About this fabric

This colourway reads as deep charcoal with a cool, almost ink-like cast rather than a warm brown-black tone. Fine horizontal and vertical threads create a restrained irregular grain across the surface, while the low sheen keeps the overall effect understated. The close, dense-looking weave gives the swatch visual weight and makes it particularly suited to upholstery classification. No composition, width or rub-test data is supplied for this colourway, so those details should be confirmed separately.

How to use it

Use 32 Jet on a tailored armchair, sofa or ottoman when a room needs a strong charcoal anchor without a glossy finish. Its near-black tone pairs naturally with pale stone, warm timber and brushed metal accents.

A dense-looking charcoal weave that brings quiet depth to upholstered seating and occasional pieces.

Pairs well with

32 Jet 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.
