Montilly Old Blue shows a softly aged floral trail in misty blue and pale sage, set against a warm ivory ground. The overall effect is airy and antique, with the pattern reading gently rather than sharply.

About this fabric
Woven in 100% linen, this fabric has the relaxed, natural character you expect from linen, with the design taking on a lightly faded, painterly quality. The large repeat — approximately V 70cm / H 138cm — gives the floral motif room to breathe, so the blossoms, leaves and small fruit-like clusters feel generous and flowing across the cloth. In Old Blue, the palette sits in a muted blue-green range with warm cream and ivory highlights, which softens the contrast and gives the surface a calm, washed-back look. At approximately 138cm wide, it is a practical width for full-length curtains and decorative interior schemes. Care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code √BM are supplied for this exact fabric.
How to use it
Use this pale blue colourway where you want a refined, slightly nostalgic note without heavy colour. It works especially well with painted wood, bleached timbers and quiet chalky neutrals.
Softly faded blue florals suit elegant curtains or relaxed upholstered accents.

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.
