About this fabric
Catalogued as a fabric, Selwyn Dalmatian is shown here covering structured armchairs, where its compact woven surface reads as substantial rather than fluid. Fine black threads break through a pale grey-white ground in irregular horizontal and vertical marks, creating a small-scale salt-and-pepper effect rather than a literal spotted motif. The uneven weave gives the surface visible depth, with darker flecks settling into the texture while the lighter yarns catch the light across the curved arms and raised edges. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification.
How to use it
Use this cool black, white and grey colourway on tailored armchairs or a compact sofa where its finely mixed texture can add definition without introducing a strong decorative pattern. Pair it with chalky walls, charcoal accents and pale timber to keep the room’s contrast crisp but restrained.
A cool salt-and-pepper weave that gives tailored upholstery a quietly graphic finish.

Selwyn Dalmatian 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.
