About this fabric

The 468 gsm construction has a substantial woven handle suited to upholstery, with the close crossweave clearly visible across the swatch. Kingfisher blue appears in cool horizontal passages, softened by dusty terracotta, brown-grey and pale taupe threads rather than a single flat colour. The design has a 19.5 cm vertical pattern repeat and no horizontal repeat, allowing the tonal striping to run continuously across the 138 cm usable width. A standard length is 30 m.

How to use it

Use Gabrielle Kingfisher on a statement chair, sofa or headboard where its cool blue and muted rust bands can sit against warm timber, charcoal or soft taupe. The varied horizontal colour movement also works well with plain cushions in either the blue or weathered terracotta tones.

Use the cool blue and weathered rust tones to bring depth to contemporary upholstery, especially alongside charcoal, taupe or aged timber.

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