Yvette Old Blue

Hailsham FabricF4877-02

Yvette Old Blue shows a softly painted floral trail set against a pale, cool ground that reads more misted blue than strong colour. The white blooms and fresh green leaves keep the design light and airy.

About this fabric

Woven in 100% linen, this Hailsham colourway has the relaxed, slightly dry handle you expect from natural linen, with a 140cm approx width and a large repeat of V 75cm / H 140cm approx. The Old Blue ground is very pale and chalky rather than saturated, so the white flowers and soft green foliage stand out with a gentle, country-house freshness. The print feels open and elegant, with enough scale to make a room feel dressed without becoming heavy. Care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code √BM are supplied for this fabric.

How to use it

Use it for curtains, Roman blinds or upholstered accent pieces where the soft old blue ground can bring a calm, classic lift. It sits especially well with painted whites, faded greens and natural timber.

A fresh, airy linen print that works beautifully in calm, elegant rooms.

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.
