About this fabric
Catalogued as a fabric from Zinc Textile’s 1973 collection, Yves Jewel has a dense-looking, subtly grainy surface visible across the swatch. Its dark brown base is lifted by restrained aubergine and charcoal flecks, giving the colourway a cool, mineral quality rather than a warm chocolate tone. Light catches the tiny surface variation gently, keeping the overall appearance quiet and low-contrast. No further performance or construction specification is supplied for this fabric.
How to use it
Use this dark plum-brown colourway on a tailored armchair, sofa or headboard where its charcoal undertone can anchor softer neutrals. Pair it with aged timber, smoked metal and muted stone shades to draw out its cool, quietly jewel-like depth.
Its deep plum-brown tone and fine, softly mottled surface bring quiet depth to tailored upholstery.
Pairs well with
Yves Jewel 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.
