Stevie Obsidian is a deep charcoal-brown fabric with an almost black appearance and a quiet, even surface. Its restrained tonal variation gives the swatch a soft depth rather than a pronounced pattern.

About this fabric

The colour sits between warm brown and black, reading as a softened obsidian shade under the light. A very fine, subtle surface variation is visible across the face, while the low sheen keeps the finish controlled and modern. With no performance features or further technical specifications supplied, intended upholstery use should be confirmed against the requirements of the project.

How to use it

Use Stevie Obsidian on a clean-lined sofa, headboard or occasional chair to create a dark, tailored anchor. Pair its charcoal-brown depth with pale stone, tobacco leather or warm timber to prevent the scheme feeling flat.

Use this deep charcoal-brown shade on tailored upholstery where its quiet, low-sheen surface can provide a strong grounding note.

Pairs well with

Stevie Obsidian 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.
