Pablo Dalmatian

In this colourway, a pale ivory ground carries neat black pin-dots that travel across the cloth in slanted rows. Folded over the photographed forms, the weave catches light softly while the pattern remains precise and high-contrast.

About this fabric

Pablo Dalmatian shows an ivory ground densely punctuated with small black dots arranged in diagonal lines, giving the surface a crisp, graphic rhythm. The close view reveals a lightly textured woven face rather than a flat printed finish, while the cloth folds into defined edges. Its near-monochrome contrast feels cooler and sharper than a warm neutral, with the white ground lifting the dark motif. No composition, width, rub test or other performance specification has been supplied for this fabric.

How to use it

Use the cool ivory-and-ink palette to sharpen a quiet neutral room, where the small dotted repeat can add pattern without overwhelming the upholstery. It would suit a tailored chair, stool or compact sofa with simple, clean-lined forms.

The crisp ivory-and-black dotted weave brings graphic definition to upholstered chairs, benches and occasional pieces.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Pablo Dalmatian 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.
