About this fabric

The surface shows irregular, undulating bands that move across the cloth like layered timber grain, with tighter vertical lines visible at the left edge. Fine horizontal texture runs through the ground, while the slightly lighter pattern catches the light without becoming high contrast. This dense-looking woven surface is best classified for upholstery from the visible cloth weight and texture. No composition, width, rub-test or performance specification is supplied for this SKU, so those details should be confirmed before ordering.

How to use it

Use Athne Carbon Blue on a sofa, headboard or occasional chair where its cool charcoal-blue tone can anchor paler grey, natural timber and muted metallic finishes. The tonal pattern adds movement while keeping the overall look composed and tailored.

Use this cool, dark blue-grey upholstery to add quiet movement and depth to contemporary or tailored furniture.

Pairs well with

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