Olney Stripe Old Blue

Olney Stripe Old Blue is a quietly tailored stripe with a soft, faded blue ground and pale cream contrast. The narrow vertical pattern reads crisp but gentle, with a linen-rich texture that keeps it from feeling severe.

About this fabric
This Colefax and Fowler fabric has a classic vertical stripe repeat of approximately 10cm across a 144cm-wide cloth. The composition of 53% viscose, 35% linen, 6% cotton, 5% polyester and 1% acrylic gives the surface a slightly dry, refined handle with enough body for confident dressing or upholstery. In this colourway, the blue is muted and cool, softened by chalky ivory stripes so the overall effect feels airy rather than vivid. The weave has a lightly textured, slightly matt finish that suits traditional interiors and calm, layered schemes.
How to use it
Use it for tailored cushions, loose covers or elegant full-length curtains where the soft blue stripe can add structure without heaviness. It pairs neatly with white-painted woodwork, pale oak and other washed blues or greys.
A restrained stripe that feels fresh and tailored in both classic and coastal schemes.

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.
