About this fabric

This Dedar fabric is catalogued as a Fabric, with no performance features noted in the supplied specification. Its medium-scale motifs are arranged in orderly rows, yet their irregular, brush-like outlines prevent the pattern from feeling rigid. The blue reads as a deep ink or midnight navy, while the pale ground reflects light and gives the colourway an airy balance. Close up, fine tonal striations within the motifs add depth to the otherwise high-contrast design.

How to use it

Use Malese Blue on a tailored occasional chair, headboard or softly structured curtain where its cool ink tone can act as a graphic accent against ivory, chalk or warm timber. Keep surrounding patterns quiet so the frayed motif edges remain the focal detail.

The cool ink-blue pattern brings graphic definition while the ivory ground keeps the overall look light.

Pairs well with

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