About this fabric

The design is formed from closely spaced vertical stripes, with the dark navy lines reading almost charcoal at the edges and the pale bands carrying a soft ivory-grey tone. The woven surface has a visible fine grain that gently softens the precision of the stripe without losing its tailored character. As a jacquard fabric from Dedar’s Jacquard fabrics collection, this colourway has a structured appearance well suited to upholstery.

How to use it

Use Sea Anchor on a buttoned chair, dining seat or compact sofa where its cool navy-and-ivory contrast can act as a clean architectural line. Pair it with warm wood and quiet ivory textiles to balance the stripe’s graphic clarity.

The crisp navy-and-ivory stripe brings tailored definition to upholstered seating and structured interiors.

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.
