Darwin Blue
Cleo FabricJ0249-01
Darwin Blue reads as a cool, softly mottled powder blue with a fine peppered texture across the weave. The small-scale surface gives the colourway a quietly lively finish without losing its calm overall tone.

About this fabric
This Cleo fabric from Jane Churchill is composed of 44% viscose, 32% cotton and 24% polyester, with an approximate width of 144cm and a vertical repeat of 16cm and horizontal repeat of 18cm. In Darwin Blue, the weave appears light and airy, shifting between pale blue-grey and deeper inkier flecks that create a gentle speckled effect. The result is a restrained, tailored look rather than a flat solid, with the lighter ground keeping the overall handle visually fresh. It is a versatile textile for schemes that want colour without heaviness, and the listed composition supports a practical, refined finish.
How to use it
Use Darwin Blue to soften smart upholstery or to bring a crisp, cool note to curtains and Roman blinds. Its powder-blue ground pairs especially well with pale oak, chalk white and brushed nickel finishes.
A calm powder-blue weave that works neatly across both tailored upholstery and soft drapery.

Darwin Blue 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.
