Fabrics Fabric100

Erfoud Blue is a deep, near-ink blue textile with a subtle charcoal cast. Its close, even weave gives the swatch a quiet texture rather than a visible pattern.

About this fabric

The colour reads as a cool, highly saturated blue softened by charcoal, creating depth without appearing bright or glossy. A fine, compact weave is visible across the surface, with tiny tonal shifts where the light catches the threads. The plain construction keeps the fabric visually calm and gives the dark colour a tailored, architectural quality. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification.

How to use it

Use Erfoud Blue to bring cool depth to a modern sofa, headboard or occasional chair, or repeat it in structured curtains against pale stone, chalk or warm timber. Its charcoal undertone works especially well where a true navy would feel too vivid.

A deep, finely woven blue with a charcoal cast, suited to tailored upholstery and understated curtains.

Pairs well with

Erfoud Blue 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.
