Meurice Charolite

Meurice Charolite has a dark, atmospheric character, with narrow diagonal stripes shifting between charcoal black and muted plum. Its softly lustrous surface gives the colourway depth as the light moves across it.

About this fabric

The design is formed from closely spaced diagonal bands, creating a precise linear rhythm across the cloth rather than a broad or graphic stripe. Charcoal-black grounds the pattern, while the subdued plum-purple lines add a cool, dusky lift without becoming bright or saturated. The surface appears softly plush and lightly reflective, allowing the diagonal ridges to catch the light. With no performance features noted in the supplied information, this colourway is best considered for decorative upholstery where its tailored, luxe appearance can be appreciated.

How to use it

Pair the charcoal-plum tone with smoked wood, blackened metal and soft grey upholstery for a moody contemporary scheme. Used on a chair, bench or occasional cushion, the diagonal stripe adds movement while keeping the room sophisticated.

Use this deep charcoal-plum stripe to bring tailored drama and tactile depth to upholstered seating.

Meurice Charolite 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.
