About this fabric

This Manuel Canovas fabric from the Paros collection is woven in 100% Polyolefin and measures approximately 140cm wide, with a vertical repeat of 7cm and a horizontal repeat of 5cm. The design shows a regular lattice of blue-grey lines and rounded ivory shapes, giving the swatch a neat, rhythmic surface. In this colourway the blue reads as cool and softened rather than bright, so the pattern feels composed rather than high contrast. The texture visible in the weave adds a subtle tactile depth that works well for furnishing schemes needing pattern without heaviness.

How to use it

Use this slate-blue colourway to sharpen pale upholstery or to bring pattern to relaxed coastal-inspired rooms. It also works well against warm woods and stone because the ivory grounds the cooler blue.

A cool slate ground with chalky ivory ovals for a tailored, easy-to-style look.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Keros Mer without fighting it. 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.
