About this fabric

Woven in 100% cotton and sold at 140cm wide, Heritage Panama Indigo has a practical plain structure with no visible pattern repeat. The surface shows a fine, even weave that catches the light softly rather than brightly, helping the colour stay rich and grounded. This indigo shade sits between navy and cobalt, with a cool depth that feels sharper than a denim blue but less blackened than midnight. It is a clean, versatile fabric choice where a plain cloth is needed with a little more colour presence than grey or charcoal. Care instructions are listed as AQV1<.

How to use it

Use this colourway to anchor a room with pale woods, chalky whites or brushed metals, where the deep blue can read crisp and contemporary. It also works well alongside brass, tan leather and other navy tones for a more layered, tailored scheme.

A rich indigo cotton that works cleanly for tailored upholstery or structured curtains.

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.
