Bamburgh Azure

Misc Fabric

Bamburgh Azure is a sharply tailored check with a dark ground and cool azure accents. The fine woven texture gives the pattern a clean, structured look rather than a soft country feel.

About this fabric

Woven in 78% polyester and 22% cotton, Bamburgh Azure has a practical, mixed-fibre handle with enough body for smart domestic use. The 140cm width makes it straightforward for furnishing projects, while the 9cm pattern repeat keeps the check regular and easy to line up. Visually, the design reads as a charcoal-black ground crossed with pale grey lines and clearer teal-azure bands, creating a cool, crisp contrast. The overall effect is restrained and modern, with the blue-green notes lifting the darker base without making it bright. Care code BQV1< is supplied for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Pair this cool azure check with pale oak, brushed chrome and plain grey fabrics for a clean, tailored scheme. It also works well in a study or sitting room where the darker ground can anchor lighter walls and upholstery.

Use for tailored upholstery or crisp curtains with a cool, graphic finish.

Pairs well with

Bamburgh Azure 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.
