Tristram Old Blue
Hamlin FabricF4726-06
Tristram Old Blue is a softly muted blue colourway with a fine woven herringbone-check effect that reads calm and understated in the swatch. The tiny repeat gives it a tailored, textural look rather than a bold pattern statement.

About this fabric
Woven in a 143cm approx width, this fabric combines 25% Linen, 22% Cotton, 21% Viscose, 16% Polyester, 11% Wool and 5% Polyamide for a balanced cloth with natural texture and added strength. The small repeat, at V 0cm / H 1cm approx, creates a subtle herringbone-check surface that feels steady and refined rather than busy. In this Old Blue colourway, the ground sits in a cool, dusty blue-grey with a lightly weathered look that softens the weave and keeps the pattern quietly tonal. Care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code √CH are supplied for reference.
How to use it
Use it on a neat armchair, sofa or bench where the fine pattern can add interest without dominating the room. Its muted blue tone also suits relaxed drapery in schemes with pale woods, chalky whites or aged brass.
A quietly textured blue that works well on tailored upholstery or soft curtains.

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.
