About this fabric
This colourway reads as a cool, slightly softened navy, with tiny lighter flecks in the weave that stop it from feeling flat. The cloth is 142cm wide approx and made from 45% Acrylic, 34% Polyester, 9% Viscose, 7% Cotton and 5% Linen, giving it a practical mixed-fibre handle with a natural-looking texture. With no repeat in the design, the surface feels calm and uncomplicated, making the woven grain the main visual feature. The overall effect is smart rather than glossy, with enough depth for tailored furnishings and enough texture to add interest at close range.
How to use it
Use it on clean-lined upholstery, dining chairs or a tailored sofa where the navy depth can anchor lighter walls. It also suits curtains or blinds in rooms that need a darker, steadier colour with a subtle woven finish.
A versatile dark blue weave that works neatly across upholstery and curtains.

Pairs well with
Sumi Navy 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.
