18 Grape
Columbia Fabric18
18 Grape is a deep grape-purple fabric with a quiet, plain appearance. Its close surface catches the light unevenly, creating subtle shifts between inky blue-purple and warmer violet.

About this fabric
The swatch is visually unpatterned, allowing its saturated grape tone to provide the design interest. A fine, softly plush-looking surface gives the cloth gentle directional shading rather than a flat, printed finish. In brighter areas, the purple lifts towards violet; in the deeper folds and edges, it reads almost midnight blue. The dense visual weight and rich colour make this a strong upholstery choice for seating that is intended to feel dramatic and enveloping.
How to use it
Use 18 Grape on an armchair, sofa or footstool where its deep blue-purple tone can act as the room's focal colour. Balance the shade with warm timber, antique brass or quiet neutrals to keep the saturated surface from feeling too cool.
A deep, atmospheric purple with a softly shaded surface for statement upholstery.

18 Grape 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.
