Mali Denim is a quietly textured plain with the look of washed denim in a deep, muted blue. The surface reads soft and slightly mottled, giving the colourway an easy, lived-in feel.

About this fabric

This colourway shows a restrained denim blue with cooler navy undertones and a gently variegated surface that catches the light in fine horizontal flecks. It is woven in 65% Polyester and 35% Cotton, giving the cloth a practical mixed-fibre handle, and the design has no vertical or horizontal repeat, so the colour reads cleanly across the width. At approximately 142cm wide, it is a useful mid-width fabric for a range of domestic schemes. The finish feels relaxed rather than glossy, with the texture adding depth without introducing pattern.

How to use it

Use Mali Denim on a clean-lined armchair, bench seat or loose cover where the muted blue can anchor the room without feeling heavy. It also works well with pale oak, chalky whites and softened greys for a calm, contemporary scheme.

A versatile blue that works well on tailored upholstery or soft curtains.

Pairs well with

Mali Denim 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.
