About this fabric

The cloth appears predominantly plain, with a fine low-contrast grain that gives the dark surface gentle visual movement. Its charcoal-black colour absorbs most of the light, while faint tonal variation keeps it from looking completely flat. The closely textured appearance gives this Wemyss fabric a smart, understated character suited to upholstery where a quiet, deep-toned finish is wanted.

How to use it

Use 16 Jet on a tailored armchair, sofa or dining seat where its softened black tone can anchor lighter timber, warm neutrals or brushed metal. Pair it with tactile cushions to bring out the subtle surface variation without competing with the fabric’s restrained colour.

A deep, near-black woven cloth that brings quiet contrast and tailored depth to upholstered furniture.

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.
