Balmoral FR Indigo

Balmoral FR Fabric

Balmoral FR Indigo shows a sharp country check in deep indigo against a soft cream ground. The pattern feels clear and orderly, with the darker lines giving the fabric a tailored, classic look.

About this fabric

This Porter & Stone fabric is 140cm wide and made from 78% polyester and 22% cotton, with a pattern repeat of 32cm vertical by 35.5cm horizontal. The check is drawn in navy-indigo and charcoal-toned lines over a pale cream base, so the overall effect is cool, bright and neatly structured. In the image, the weave reads as smooth and practical rather than plush, which helps the pattern stay crisp. The larger repeat gives the cloth a confident scale that works well when you want the check to be clearly visible across a sofa, bench or curtain.

How to use it

Use this indigo colourway to bring definition to a relaxed scheme of white, oak and painted timber. It also works well in boot rooms, country kitchens and informal living spaces where the cream ground keeps the check feeling fresh.

A crisp checked cloth that suits tailored upholstery or clean-lined curtains.

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