Reece FabricJ0268-16

Reece Denim is a softly toned blue plain with a gentle matte look and a subtle linen-led texture. The colour reads as a cool powder blue, giving the swatch a calm, quietly relaxed feel.

About this fabric

Woven in 70% cotton and 30% linen, Reece Denim has the natural, lightly slubby character you can see across the surface of the cloth. The plain design has no repeat, so the eye is drawn to the even blue tone and the soft, brushed-looking finish rather than any motif. At approximately 142cm wide, it is a practical furnishing textile for clean-lined curtains or straightforward upholstery projects. The colour sits in a muted denim-blue range, airy rather than deep, which helps it feel fresh and easy to live with.

How to use it

Use this pale blue with crisp white, chalky greys or washed timber for a calm scheme. Its gentle denim tone is especially good on relaxed upholstery or unlined curtains where the weave can catch the light.

A calm powder-blue plain that works beautifully on seating or simple curtains.

Pairs well with

Reece 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.
