Carnaby Duck Egg

Magma Fabric

Carnaby Duck Egg is a softly muted blue with a cool, airy feel and a fine, even surface. The colour reads as a gentle duck egg tone rather than a bright pastel, with a subtle woven texture visible across the cloth.

About this fabric

Part of Fryett's Fabrics’ Magma collection, Carnaby Duck Egg is a 59% cotton, 41% polyester fabric with a 140cm width and no pattern repeat. The cloth has a neat, closely woven look that gives the surface a smooth, understated finish. In this colourway the blue sits in a pale duck egg range, softened with grey so it feels calm rather than vivid. The overall impression is clean and versatile, with just enough texture to keep it from looking flat.

How to use it

Use this duck egg shade on upholstered seating, blinds or relaxed curtains where a cool, quiet colour is needed. It pairs especially well with whitewashed timber, pale oak and chalky neutrals.

A calm, fresh blue that works neatly across upholstery and curtains.

Pairs well with

Carnaby Duck Egg 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.
