Zephyr Blue

G P & J Baker X Kit Kemp Stripes II FabricBF11131.2

Zephyr Blue reads as a cool, weathered blue ground crossed by fine vertical stripes in rust red, cream and earthy tan. Its closely woven surface gives the colourway a tactile, crafted depth rather than a flat printed appearance.

About this fabric

The muted blue background has a slightly denim-like cast, while the narrow rust-red and warm cream bands bring measured contrast without overpowering the ground. Fine geometric and flecked details sit within the stripes, creating a crisp vertical rhythm across the woven cloth. Made from 75% cotton and 25% jute, the fabric is 132 cm (51.86") wide, with a 10 cm (3.93") vertical pattern repeat and a 33 cm (12.96") horizontal repeat. It is supplied for curtains, loose upholstery, fixed upholstery and bedspreads, making this substantial striped construction suitable for both soft furnishings and seating.

How to use it

Pair Zephyr Blue with chalky neutrals, weathered wood and warm terracotta to draw out the rust accents while preserving its cool blue balance. Use it on a tailored chair, relaxed blind or upholstered bedhead where the vertical stripe can run clearly.

A cool blue woven stripe with earthy rust and cream accents for tailored upholstery, curtains or relaxed bedspreads.

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