Trentham Indigo

Trentham Indigo appears as a softly mottled taupe-grey textile, with cool charcoal and warm brown notes moving through its fine, closely set chevron weave. The small-scale surface gives the swatch a quietly dimensional look rather than a flat indigo finish.

About this fabric

This woven blend contains 47% Viscose, 20% Linen, 19% Polyester and 14% Cotton, with a 137 cm (53.82") width. Its tightly repeated 1.5 cm (.59") horizontal pattern repeat forms a subtle herringbone effect, while the mixed taupe, grey and charcoal tones create gentle depth across the surface. With a 35,000 Martindale rub test, it is suitable for curtains, loose upholstery, fixed upholstery and bedspreads. After care is professional dry cleaning only: do not wash, bleach or iron.

How to use it

Use Trentham Indigo to upholster a tailored armchair or sofa where its cool taupe-grey colouring can sit comfortably with stone, oatmeal and charcoal. It can also add softly textured fullness to curtains or a coordinated bedspread without introducing a bold motif.

The muted taupe-grey ground and fine chevron weave bring understated texture to upholstery, curtains and bedspreads.

Pairs well with

Trentham Indigo 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.
