About this fabric

The design is built from broad vertical stripes, with darker graphite sections alternating against lighter grey columns and narrow shadow-toned edges. Across each stripe, closely spaced horizontal threads create a softly irregular woven texture rather than a flat, printed finish. Its cool grey palette has a restrained, architectural mood, while the tonal variation gives the dark areas depth as the light moves across the surface. No performance features are noted for this fabric.

How to use it

Pair Ellsworth Graphite with pale grey walls, blackened metal and warm timber to balance its cool, structured stripes. Its charcoal depth can also ground a tailored sofa or bring definition to full-length curtains.

Use the cool graphite ground to add architectural definition to upholstery, curtains or blinds.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Ellsworth Graphite without fighting it. 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.
