Lowick Plaid Blue shows a cool slate-blue ground crossed with fine pale grey and cream checks. The effect is orderly and quietly tailored, with a soft wool surface that keeps the pattern looking calm rather than stark.

About this fabric

Woven in 100% wool, Lowick Plaid Blue has a medium, versatile handle and a clear plaid structure that works comfortably across seating and window treatments. The repeat is approximately V 22cm and H 20cm, giving the check a generous, easy-to-read scale that suits larger pieces well. In this colourway the blue is softened and slightly dusty, with the lighter crossing lines lifting the design and adding definition without harsh contrast. The cloth feels smart and composed rather than rustic, and the wool texture gives the checks a gentle depth as the light moves across the surface. It is supplied at approximately 145cm wide and carries care code Q 8 + T 3 with fire code √BH.

How to use it

Use this muted blue plaid to bring structure to a study, snug or hallway seating, especially alongside painted timber and brushed metal. It also makes a sharp but relaxed curtain in rooms that need a cooler, more contained note.

A restrained blue plaid that feels crisp on upholstery and tailored on curtains.

Pairs well with

Lowick Plaid 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.
