Beachcomber Cornflower

Misc Fabric

Beachcomber Cornflower is a clean, striped cotton with a relaxed seaside feel. The cornflower blue bands sit against soft cream and beige grounds, giving the design a light, airy rhythm.

About this fabric

Woven in 100% cotton and measuring 140cm wide, this fabric has a straight stripe with a 0cm pattern repeat, making the layout simple and uninterrupted across the width. In this colourway, the cornflower blue reads cool and crisp rather than saturated, balanced by pale ivory, sand and taupe stripes that soften the overall look. The fabric has the approachable character of a classic cotton cloth, with enough body for furnishing projects that need a neat, tailored finish. Care instructions are DQW1<, so it is best handled with appropriate textile care.

How to use it

Use this stripe on blinds, cushions or a neat occasional chair to bring a fresh, coastal note to pale wood or painted interiors. The cool blue and warm neutral mix works especially well in rooms that need pattern without heaviness.

Use it for fresh coastal upholstery or breezy curtains where the blue stripes can stay crisp and bright.

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