About this fabric

Woven in 100% linen, Hardy Stripe Old Blue has a fine, lightly textured handle that suits window treatments and lighter upholstery alike. The stripe is very small in scale, with a V 0cm / H 1cm approx repeat, so it reads as a neat pinstripe rather than a bold pattern. This colourway is a muted old blue with a greyed, weathered quality, which keeps the surface looking fresh rather than bright. At approximately 150cm wide, it offers practical coverage for curtains, cushions or occasional seating, and the CM fire rating adds a useful specification for domestic projects.

How to use it

Use this soft blue stripe on Roman blinds, tailored curtains or cushions where you want pattern without heaviness. It pairs especially well with chalky whites, pale oak and other washed blues.

A quietly tailored linen stripe that works well on cushions, blinds or slim upholstery pieces.

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.
