Martello Bluebird is a deep bluebird teal woven fabric with a subtly mottled surface. Its cool, saturated colour shifts gently across the close-up, revealing fine crosswise and lengthwise texture rather than a printed motif.

About this fabric

The 300gsm construction gives Martello Bluebird a substantial mid-weight presence, while the visible weave remains finely textured and softly irregular. Its blue-led teal tone feels cool and atmospheric, with darker threads adding depth across the surface instead of creating a flat block colour. At 144cm usable width, it offers practical coverage for both upholstery and drapery applications. Both the vertical and horizontal pattern repeats are 0cm, and the standard length is 40m, making this a straightforward plain textile to position and cut.

How to use it

Use the cool depth of Bluebird teal to bring focus to a reading chair, sofa or full-length curtains, then soften it with chalky neutrals, pale timber and brushed brass.

Pair this deep bluebird teal with pale woods, warm neutrals or burnished metal for a balanced, layered scheme.

Pairs well with

Martello Bluebird 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.
