About this fabric

The background reads as a light, warm beige, with subtle darker threads creating the look of a natural linen weave. Fine sky-blue stripes appear at varied intervals, some edged with paler blue lines that give the vertical pattern gentle movement rather than a rigid, uniform rhythm. The close, even texture looks substantial enough for upholstery while retaining the relaxed appearance suited to curtains and cushions. No performance features are noted for this fabric.

How to use it

Use the cool sky-blue lines to bring a quiet coastal note to a warm neutral room, pairing the fabric with pale oak, chalky walls and textured beige upholstery. Its vertical stripe can also add understated height to relaxed curtains or a statement occasional chair.

The softly textured beige ground and cool blue striping suit relaxed upholstery, cushions and easy drapery.

Pairs well with

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