About this fabric

Henley Blue is a cool, muted blue colourway with slate-grey and soft ivory accents arranged in closely spaced vertical bands. Each band carries a repeated zigzag or wave motif, giving the surface a rhythmic graphic texture while the woven ground keeps the pattern from looking flat. Made from 60% linen and 40% cotton, the fabric is 140 cm (55") wide and is specified for curtains, loose upholstery, fixed upholstery and bedspreads. It has an 18 cm (7.07") vertical repeat and a 23.5 cm (9.23") horizontal repeat. Care is professional dry cleaning only; do not wash, bleach or iron.

How to use it

Use the cool blue-grey and ivory palette to bring definition to a light, tonal room, particularly on full-length curtains or a tailored upholstered chair. The strong vertical arrangement can also give bedspreads and upholstered panels a neatly ordered finish.

A cool blue-grey stripe with ivory wave detailing for tailored curtains, upholstery and bedspreads.

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