Marius Old Blue
Marius FabricF4840-05
Marius Old Blue pairs a soft dusty blue ground with a worn-in gold damask motif. The design reads gently antique, with a subtle sheen that catches the light without feeling bright.

About this fabric
Woven in 40% Linen, 36% Viscose and 24% Silk, this fabric has a refined handle and a softly lustrous surface that suits its decorative damask pattern. The old blue ground appears cool and powdery, while the raised gold motif gives the cloth a faded, heirloom character. With an approximate 71cm vertical and horizontal repeat and an approximate width of 142cm, it is a substantial patterned textile with a balanced, formal rhythm. The combination of linen texture and silk sheen keeps the surface lively rather than flat.
How to use it
Use it for curtains, occasional chairs or a structured headboard where the muted blue will add calm and the gold pattern can catch afternoon light. It works especially well with pale woods, chalky neutrals and aged brass.
The muted blue ground and soft gold pattern give it an elegant, quietly aged look.

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.
