Brooke Stripe Blue is a narrow, quietly tailored stripe with a soft duck-egg blue character against a pale neutral ground. The effect is fresh and restrained, with the woven texture keeping it from feeling too crisp.

About this fabric

This Colefax and Fowler fabric is woven in 49% cotton and 51% linen, giving the stripe a natural, lightly slubbed handle that suits both upholstery and drapery. The repeat is very small at approximately V 0cm / H 1cm, so the vertical blue-grey and soft greenish-blue lines read as a fine pinstripe rather than a bold banded design. At 137cm wide, it offers a practical width for furnishing projects, while the pale base helps the cooler blue notes feel clean and airy. The overall impression is calm and understated, with enough detail in the weave to add interest without dominating a room.

How to use it

Use it where you want a gentle coastal or country note without strong contrast: on a slipper chair, café curtains, or Roman blinds. Its cool, misty blue tone sits especially well with chalky whites, weathered wood, and faded painted finishes.

A quiet stripe that works beautifully on tailored upholstery or airy curtains.

Pairs well with

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