Name: Crillon Mole
Brand: Zinc Textile

Crillon Mole is a near-black mole brown with a quiet, cloudy surface. Faint lighter flecks and soft tonal shifts keep the dark ground from looking flat.

About this fabric

This colourway sits close to charcoal in the photograph rather than reading as a warm mid-brown, giving it a deep, enveloping appearance. Its surface looks densely textured and softly brushed, with subtle cloudy variation that changes gently across the swatch. There is no visible motif, stripe or repeat; the character comes from the low-sheen texture and restrained movement within the dark colour. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification, so the fabric should be assessed against the requirements of the intended upholstery project.

How to use it

Use Crillon Mole to bring depth to tailored seating, or pair its charcoal-leaning brown with warm timber, aged brass and softly contrasting neutrals.

Its deep charcoal-mole tone and softly mottled surface suit tailored upholstery and layered tonal schemes.

Crillon Mole 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.
