About this fabric

This colourway of Emile II shows a rich cobalt tone that appears uniformly dyed, with no repeat to interrupt the surface and a refined plain finish. The cloth is a practical 50% cotton, 50% polyester blend, and at approximately 140cm wide it is well suited to made-to-measure upholstery projects. Its visual texture looks fine and close, giving the blue a crisp, modern clarity rather than a slubby or rustic effect. Care code C 8 + T 3 and fire code K are supplied for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Use this cobalt shade to sharpen a neutral sofa, armchair, or ottoman, especially alongside pale stone, soft grey, or white walls. It also works well in a more graphic scheme where the blue can provide the room’s strongest accent.

A rich cobalt that brings crisp colour and a tailored finish to modern seating or smart soft furnishings.

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.
