Rosella FabricF4510-03
Leora Old Blue shows a classic damask motif with a gently faded, heritage feel. The pale ground lets the soft blue pattern sit quietly rather than shout.

About this fabric
Woven in 45% linen, 35% viscose and 20% silk, this fabric has a refined surface that suits its decorative damask pattern. The design is worked in a soft old blue with greyed, silvery undertones, so the motif reads airy and restrained rather than bright. Its 128cm approximate width and large repeat of V 72cm / H 64cm mean the pattern will show best across generous drops or upholstered statement pieces. The overall effect is formal but softened by the washed, luminous tone visible in the swatch.
How to use it
Pair Leora Old Blue with chalky whites, pale oak and muted silver finishes for a calm scheme. It is especially effective on relaxed curtains or a shaped armchair where the large damask can breathe.
Use for elegant curtains or tailored upholstery where the faded blue pattern can read softly against a pale ground.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Leora Old Blue 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.
