Kensington Duck Egg

Brodsworth Fabric

Kensington Duck Egg has a calm, pale blue-grey look with a finely striated surface that gives the cloth gentle movement rather than a flat finish. The tone reads cool and softened, with the weave catching the light in understated horizontal flecks.

About this fabric

This colourway from the Brodsworth collection is made from 100% polyester and has a 140cm width, with no pattern repeat to allow for straightforward cutting and matching. The visible surface is a delicate duck egg grey, leaning cool rather than green, with a lightly linen-like strié that adds texture without forming a bold pattern. Its subtle sheen sits quietly across the cloth, giving the shade a soft, tailored feel. With no repeat to consider and a compact visual texture, it feels easy to place in schemes that need colour without fuss.

How to use it

Use Kensington Duck Egg on tailored blinds, light curtains or clean-lined upholstery where its cool grey-blue tone can add softness. It pairs especially well with chalk white, pale oak and deeper navy accents.

A cool, understated shade that works neatly across seating and curtains.

Pairs well with

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