About this fabric

The close surface reads as a fine, softly brushed texture rather than a patterned design, with slightly lighter blue fibres breaking through the dark ground. Its indigo tone is cool and saturated, but the gentle variation keeps it from looking flat or overly glossy. Catalogued as a fabric from Dedar’s Curtain fabrics collection, this colourway is naturally suited to drapery where its dark tone can create a calm, enveloping backdrop.

How to use it

Use No Excuses Indigo for full-length curtains in a study, bedroom or sitting room, pairing its cool depth with pale stone, warm timber or muted blue upholstery. The near-black blue also works well as a tonal layer against charcoal and navy.

Use this deep, cool indigo for full-length curtains that add quiet depth without a visible motif.

Pairs well with

No Excuses Indigo 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.
