Battersea FabricBatterseaWave-7

Battersea Wave Colour 7 combines a cool slate blue-grey ground with narrow, irregular warm-ivory waves running vertically across the cloth. Its close woven texture gives the pattern a softly tactile, subtly dimensional appearance.

About this fabric

The repeated wave motif has an organic, slightly jagged edge rather than a precise geometric finish, creating movement across the surface. Against the muted blue-grey ground, the ivory lines read warmly without becoming bright, giving this colourway a calm, balanced contrast. The tightly textured woven face is suitable to consider for both upholstery and drapery applications; no performance features are noted in the supplied specification.

How to use it

Use the cool slate tone to anchor a relaxed blue-grey scheme, then pick up the warm ivory waves with oatmeal upholstery, natural wood or softly coloured walls. The vertical rhythm would also bring gentle direction to curtains, blinds or a feature chair.

Pair the cool slate ground and warm ivory waves with quiet neutrals, pale timber and softly tailored upholstery.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Battersea Wave Colour 7 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.
