Healey FabricF4528-01

Farina Old Blue shows a neat micro-check in a pale, misty blue that reads cool and lightly washed rather than saturated. The tiny woven grid gives the surface a tailored, understated rhythm.

About this fabric

This Colefax and Fowler fabric is supplied on a width of approximately 136cm with a repeat of V 4cm / H 4cm approx. Woven in 59% viscose, 24% cotton, 11% linen and 6% acrylic, it has a clean, lightly textured handle that suits both upholstery and curtains. In this colourway the blue is softened with a greyed, airy cast, so the small check sits quietly across the cloth instead of looking sharp or high-contrast. The overall effect is fresh and restrained, with the weave catching the light just enough to keep the surface lively. Fire code √CM and care code Q 8 < T 3 are noted.

How to use it

Use it where you want a smart blue that stays calm against painted timber, pale oak or brushed metal. It works especially well on relaxed upholstery, Roman blinds or tailored cushions that benefit from the small-scale pattern.

A quiet blue with a crisp micro-check that feels tailored and versatile.

Pairs well with

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