About this fabric

The colour sits between dusty blue and softened denim, with a cool tone that remains gentle rather than saturated. A close, plain weave creates subtle vertical texture and slight tonal movement while keeping the overall appearance clean. The supplied specification gives Ario Riviera a 153 cm usable width and a weight of 198 gsm, making it a versatile mid-weight for upholstery or drapery. It has 48.5 threads per cm, with no vertical or horizontal pattern repeat recorded.

How to use it

Use this cool blue on occasional upholstery, relaxed curtains or blinds where its quiet texture can add depth without introducing a visible motif. It works particularly well with chalky whites, pale timber and charcoal accents.

Pair this cool, muted blue with pale woods, soft neutrals or charcoal for a calm, tailored scheme.

Pairs well with

Ario Riviera 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.
