Fitzroy Old Blue shows a quiet vertical stripe with a softly woven, textural surface and a muted blue-grey ground. The slim pattern reads crisp but understated, with the pale yarns giving the cloth a gently washed, tailored look.

About this fabric

This Casey fabric from Colefax and Fowler is composed of 62% viscose, 30% cotton and 8% polyester, with an approximate width of 146cm and a repeat of V 2cm / H 8cm. In this colourway, the narrow stripe is worked in dusty blue-grey and soft stone, so the overall effect stays cool, calm and slightly weathered rather than bright. The weave has a small, pebbled texture that catches the light in tiny vertical runs, giving the design more depth than a plain stripe. It is a versatile textile that sits comfortably in both upholstery and drapery use where a smart, restrained finish is wanted.

How to use it

Use it to bring a tailored note to an armchair, banquette or relaxed blind, especially in rooms built around chalky neutrals and pale timber. Its softened blue tone also works well with warm whites, brushed nickel and deeper navy accents.

A restrained blue stripe that feels tailored and easy to pair with pale woods or crisp linens.

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