About this fabric
Woven in 100% linen, this fabric has a naturally dry, relaxed handle that suits a refined decorative scheme. The design repeats as a medium-scale damask, with an approximate vertical repeat of 43cm and horizontal repeat of 33cm, creating a balanced rhythmic layout across the cloth. In this colourway, the blue reads as muted and weathered, with a hazy softness that is lifted by pale blush and ivory detailing. The light ground keeps the pattern from feeling heavy, while the linen texture adds a subtle, honest finish.
How to use it
Use this softened old blue on curtains or relaxed upholstered pieces where you want pattern without strong contrast. It sits beautifully with painted whites, pale timber and other faded tones for a calm, collected room.
A faded blue damask with a quiet, elegant wash that suits layered classic interiors.

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.
