About this fabric

The visible weave is dense and nubby, with charcoal, slate and blue-grey threads creating a softly irregular surface. Subtle vertical striping runs through the cloth, appearing darker in some areas and catching the light in others. This close, substantial-looking texture makes 23 Captain particularly well suited to upholstery, where its depth can read as quietly tailored rather than flat. As part of Wemyss’s Yalamba collection, it offers a cool, atmospheric neutral with more colour than a straightforward charcoal.

How to use it

Pair 23 Captain with pale stone, chalky grey or weathered timber for a restrained scheme, or use it against warm brass and rust accents to draw out the blue-charcoal depth.

Use this deep blue-charcoal weave to bring quiet depth and tactile interest to upholstered seating.

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.
