À Contre-jour Blu Alba

Name: À Contre-jour Blu Alba

À Contre-jour Blu Alba presents a cool, misted blue-grey landscape in which dark, finely drawn trees frame layered mountains and calm water. The tonal depth gives the scene a quietly atmospheric, almost ink-wash quality.

About this fabric

This jacquard fabric shows a repeated panoramic scene of mountain ridges, distant water, bridges and silhouetted trees, with the strongest detail concentrated in the dark branches and pine-like foliage. Blu Alba’s blue-grey ground feels cool and softened rather than bright, while the charcoal imagery adds definition and depth. The broad scenic motif makes a confident statement on upholstery, curtains or cushions, depending on the scale required. No composition, width or rub-test data has been supplied for this colourway.

How to use it

Pair the cool blue-grey ground with pale stone, charcoal and weathered timber to draw out its misty landscape character. Use it where the large scenic repeat can remain visible, such as a feature chair, headboard or full curtain.

Use this cool blue-grey landscape as a composed statement on upholstery, curtains or cushions.

À Contre-jour Blu Alba 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.
