Bowland Mineral

Name: Bowland Mineral
Brand: Clarke & Clarke
SKU: CCF0036-02

Bowland Mineral has a cool, pale mineral-blue ground crossed by cream and taupe lines in a softly muted plaid. The close-set checks give the surface a calm, lightly textured character rather than a bold country contrast.

About this fabric

This 270 gsm fabric uses a small-scale plaid with a 10 cm vertical repeat and a 9.5 cm horizontal repeat, creating neat intersecting blocks across the cloth. Mineral blue supplies the dominant tone, while cream bands brighten the design and taupe lines add a gentle, weathered depth. At 138 cm wide, it offers a practical mid-weight format for coordinated upholstery and drapery applications. The standard length is 40 m.

How to use it

Use the cool mineral-blue ground to bring a fresh, quiet note to a sitting room chair, bench or relaxed curtain, balancing it with oatmeal, chalk white and natural timber.

Pair this cool mineral blue plaid with pale woods, warm neutrals and softly textured upholstery or curtains.

Pairs well with

Bowland Mineral 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.
