Alvar Royal Blue

Alvar Royal Blue is a deep, cool blue plain fabric with a softly mottled surface and no visible repeating motif. Its dark tone reads almost ink-like in the shadowed areas, while subtle shifts in the surface prevent it from appearing flat.

About this fabric

The colour has a saturated royal-blue depth, tempered by cloudy tonal variation that gives the cloth a softly brushed appearance. With a weight of 300gsm, it has enough visual substance for upholstery while remaining suitable for drapery. The 144cm usable width and zero-centimetre horizontal and vertical pattern repeats make it straightforward to cut as a plain cloth. A standard length of 35m is supplied for larger furnishing schemes.

How to use it

Use this cool, inky blue on a tailored armchair, sofa or headboard to create a strong focal point, or carry it through full-length curtains for a darker, enveloping effect. Pair it with warm timber and pale neutrals to bring out the blue’s depth without losing its clean, smart character.

The deep, cool blue and softly mottled surface bring tailored depth to upholstery or full-length drapery.

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.
