Eleanora Old Blue
Tilbury FabricF4909-02
A softly faded blue ground gives Eleanora Old Blue a calm, airy feel, with the floral trail reading delicate and lightly vintage. The white blooms and green foliage sit clearly against the cool background, creating a fresh, classic pattern.

About this fabric
Eleanora Old Blue from the Tilbury collection by Colefax and Fowler is woven in 100% linen, with an approximate width of 134cm and a repeat of V 50cm / H 45cm. In this colourway, the ground is a pale, powdery blue that feels cool and restrained rather than vivid, allowing the floral design to stand out gently. The flowers are rendered in creamy white with soft beige shading, while the foliage brings in muted green tones that add movement without darkening the cloth. The linen surface gives the print a relaxed, lightly textured character that suits both decorative curtains and refined upholstery applications. Care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code √BM are noted for this fabric.
How to use it
Use it in a bedroom, sitting room or guest room where the soft blue ground can keep the scheme restful and bright. It works especially well with white-painted joinery, aged brass, and other washed-out botanical tones.
Pair with crisp linen or pale woods to keep the gentle blue ground feeling fresh.

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.
