About this fabric
This colourway reads as a muted old blue with a cool, greyed cast, lifted by creamy ivory checks that keep the pattern light and airy. The small woven structure gives the surface a neat, textural finish rather than a flat printed look, and the 12cm by 12cm repeat keeps the check pleasantly ordered. Woven in 57% viscose, 21% cotton, 12% linen and 10% polyester, it has a balanced handle that suits both upholstery and drapery. At approximately 143cm wide, it works well for curtains, cushions and covered furniture where a refined check is wanted without strong contrast.
How to use it
Use it with pale timber, parchment whites and brushed metal for a fresh country-smart scheme. Its softened blue tone also sits neatly beside linen neutrals and faded navy accents.
Pair with pale oak, chalky paint tones and simple stripes for a crisp, tailored look.

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.
