Brand: Colefax and Fowler

Belgrave Check Vintage Blue shows a classic check in a softly weathered blue, lifted by creamy ground tones and a linen-like texture. The pattern reads calm and airy, with the blue stripes giving it a gentle, tailored rhythm.

About this fabric

Woven in 82% viscose and 18% linen, this fabric has a refined cloth handle that suits both upholstery and drapery applications. The check is set on a pale cream ground with vintage blue and cooler grey-blue bands, creating a muted, slightly faded effect rather than a sharp contrast. At approximately 143cm wide, it offers a practical cloth width for larger projects, while the vertical repeat of around 11cm keeps the check clear and orderly. The visible weave gives the colourway a soft, dry texture that feels more relaxed country-house than crisp modern. Care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code √BM are supplied for specification reference.

How to use it

Use this colourway for slim armchairs, bench cushions, or curtains where the pale blue check can add structure without overpowering the room. It sits especially well with white-painted wood, weathered oak, and soft grey or stone furnishings.

A soft checked blue that feels easy and airy on upholstery or curtains.

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.
