Hector Pale Blue is a quiet, airy linen with a fine woven herringbone character and a soft powder-blue wash. Its pale tone reads fresh and understated, with just enough texture to keep the surface from looking flat.

About this fabric
Woven in 100% linen, Hector has a lightly slubbed handle and a neat small-scale herringbone effect that gives the cloth gentle movement across the surface. The repeat is V 0cm / H 2cm approx, which keeps the design visually calm and easy to use on larger pieces. At 139cm wide approx, it offers a practical width for curtains and upholstery projects alike. This Pale Blue colourway is especially soft and cool, with a misted, washed look that suits relaxed interiors rather than high-contrast schemes.
How to use it
Use this pale blue alongside chalk white, pale oak, or weathered grey for a calm coastal feel. It also works well on Roman blinds, loose covers, or tailored cushions where the delicate weave can be appreciated up close.
A cool, airy blue that works beautifully on blinds, cushions, or simple upholstery.

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.
