Livingstone Old Blue
Hailsham FabricF4868-03
Livingstone in Old Blue shows a softly aged blue pattern with a light, airy ground and a gentle woven linen texture. The motif reads calm and refined, with the colour lifting just enough to keep the design feeling fresh rather than heavy.

About this fabric
This colourway is woven in 100% linen and has a graceful, gently textured handle that suits both curtains and upholstery use. The 134cm width and approximate 24cm vertical by 67cm horizontal repeat make the pattern feel considered without becoming overly formal. In this Old Blue version, the design sits in a pale, dusty blue-grey tone over an ivory ground, so the pattern appears crisp but subdued. The overall effect is cool, softened and elegant, with the linen texture adding a natural, slightly chalky finish. Care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code √BM are supplied for this exact fabric.
How to use it
Use this Old Blue alongside pale oak, painted white woodwork or brushed nickel for a restrained, tailored scheme. It also works well in a bedroom or sitting room where you want the pattern visible but the palette to stay light and restful.
A cool, airy blue that suits relaxed upholstery or quietly tailored curtains.

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