Jardine FabricF2328-05

Bowood Blue/Grey shows a delicate scattering of small rose-like florals across a creamy ground, with the blooms picked out in misted blue-grey tones. The effect is airy and restrained, with just enough pattern to read clearly from a distance.

About this fabric

This colourway of Jardine keeps the floral motif light and refined, with pale blue-grey petals and softly faded stems sitting on a warm cream background. The print has a gentle, watercolour-like softness that suits the fabric’s linen-and-cotton handle, while the 12% nylon adds practical stability. At approximately 134cm wide with a vertical repeat of 35cm and horizontal repeat of 19cm, it is useful for tailored applications where pattern placement matters. The overall impression is cool and calm rather than vivid, giving the design a composed country-house feel. Care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code √BM are supplied for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Use it on a small armchair, a skirted sofa, or relaxed curtains where the soft blue-grey flowers can sit against painted woodwork or pale oak. It works especially well in rooms that need pattern without adding visual weight.

Its pale, misty palette works beautifully for tailored upholstery or quiet drapes.

Pairs well with

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