Denbury Blue shows a tiny all-over motif in soft blue against a warm cream ground, giving the design a light, tailored feel. The repeat is small and regular, so the pattern reads as a delicate texture from a distance and a neat scattered detail up close.

About this fabric

Woven in 44% viscose, 38% linen and 18% cotton, this fabric has the natural, slightly dry character you would expect from a linen-rich cloth, with enough body to make it useful across the room. The approximately 138cm width and V 11cm / H 18cm repeat suit a considered upholstery or drapery project where the pattern needs to sit evenly. In this colourway the blue marks are gentle and cool rather than bright, so the effect stays calm and understated on the pale ground. Care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code √CM are supplied for specification purposes.

How to use it

Use Denbury Blue where you want a quiet, tailored accent: it would sit well on a small armchair, blinds, or lined curtains. The muted blue detail keeps it fresh beside chalky whites, pale timber and soft grey upholstery.

A restrained blue-and-cream pattern that works neatly on curtains or upholstered accent pieces.

Pairs well with

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