Bilbo Tungsten

Name: Bilbo Tungsten

Bilbo Tungsten presents a dramatic, mirrored agate formation in a cool spectrum of charcoal, silver-grey and pale stone. Its deep central markings and rippling outer lines create a strong sense of movement across the surface.

About this fabric

The design is visibly symmetrical, with an elongated dark centre framed by irregular, mineral-like bands that echo polished stone or agate. Tungsten reads as a muted, cool grey colourway, combining charcoal depth with chalky silver and soft taupe-grey highlights rather than a flat single tone. Fine tonal variation across the surface gives the pattern a subtly tactile, layered appearance, while the large repeat makes a confident upholstery statement. No performance features or further technical specifications are noted for this fabric.

How to use it

Pair this cool smoky-grey colourway with charcoal, blackened metal and pale stone for a refined, atmospheric scheme. On a statement chair, headboard or sofa, the mirrored pattern can act as the room’s principal visual feature.

Use this smoky, mineral-toned design to give statement upholstery a dramatic, gallery-like presence.

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