About this fabric

Woven in 64% linen, 26% viscose and 10% polyester, this fabric has the crisp, slightly fluid character you expect from a decorative sheer rather than a heavy cloth. The design shows elongated diamond repeats with small oval centres and scrolling links, all picked out in muted blue-grey against a clear ivory ground. At approximately 130cm wide with a vertical repeat of around 40cm and a horizontal repeat of around 14cm, it reads as a balanced, structured pattern that still feels delicate. The colourway is especially cool and restrained, with the old blue tones appearing softened and washed by the light. Care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code Z are supplied for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Use it for curtains, café sheers or layered window treatments where the old-blue pattern can filter daylight without looking stark. It works neatly with painted whites, pale oak and other quiet blue-grey accents.

A refined old-blue sheer that softens daylight and adds pattern without heaviness.

Pairs well with

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