Brand: Andrew Martin

Misc Fabric

Captain Rope has a cool pale blue-grey ground with a tightly repeated geometric loop motif across the surface. Its compact weave catches the light softly, giving the colour a gently dimensional finish rather than a flat grey appearance.

About this fabric

The pattern is made up of very small linked, rounded forms, creating a subtle rope-like rhythm that remains delicate at a distance. Fine variation between blue-grey and lighter threads gives the swatch a softly mottled texture and restrained depth. The dense, structured appearance makes this colourway particularly suited to upholstery-led schemes. No composition, width, usage or rub-test specification has been supplied for this fabric.

How to use it

Use the cool blue-grey tone on a tailored armchair, headboard or compact sofa, pairing it with chalky whites, pale timber and brushed metal. The small-scale motif works well alongside larger plain textures without dominating the room.

A cool, finely patterned blue-grey weave for tailored upholstery with subtle surface interest.

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.
