Morette Blue

Olney FabricF4934-02

Morette Blue shows a quiet grey-blue surface with a subtle, mottled linen look and a fine, textural weave. The overall effect is cool and restrained, with just enough movement in the yarns to keep the cloth from reading flat.

About this fabric

Morette Blue from the Olney collection by Colefax and Fowler is a fabric with a softly textured appearance and a calm, cool blue-grey tone. The composition combines 47% viscose, 21% linen, 17% cotton, 6% acrylic, 5% polyester and 4% polyamide, giving the cloth its lightly dappled surface and natural-looking depth. At approximately 140cm wide, with a vertical and horizontal repeat of 0cm, it presents as a non-patterned texture rather than a recurring motif. The muted colourway has a pale, chalky quality in the light, making it feel polished rather than bright. Care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code √BH are supplied for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Use Morette Blue on a sofa, bench or smart headboard where its cool grey-blue tone will soften stronger woods and painted finishes. It also lends itself to relaxed curtains or Roman blinds when you want a gentle, tailored texture rather than a bold statement.

A calm grey-blue with a gently slubbed weave that works beautifully for tailored upholstery or elegant curtains.

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.
