About this fabric

Woven in 100% silk, Lucerne Indigo has a refined handle and a subtle slubbed texture that catches the light without looking glossy. The fabric has no repeat, which suits the clean, uninterrupted look of this plain colourway, and the approximate width is 138cm. Its blue reads as a muted indigo with a slightly greyed undertone, so it feels cooler and more restrained than a brighter navy. The overall effect is elegant and fluid, with enough presence for decorative curtains and lighter interior uses.

How to use it

Pair this cool indigo with pale oak, chalky whites or brushed nickel for a crisp, tailored scheme. It is especially effective in rooms that need colour depth without visual heaviness.

Use for tailored curtains or relaxed upholstered accents where a cool blue silk is wanted.

Pairs well with

Lucerne Indigo is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. 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.
