About this fabric

The 140 cm usable width carries a 68 cm vertical repeat and 140 cm horizontal repeat, with birds distributed across the light ground rather than arranged in rigid rows. Blue and grey birds provide the strongest contrast, while muted sage, warm ochre and charcoal accents give the colourway gentle depth without making it feel busy. At 220 gsm with 44 threads per cm, this is a versatile mid-weight fabric suited to both upholstery and drapery. The visible surface reads as fine and smooth, allowing the scattered silhouettes and subtle colour changes to remain clear.

How to use it

Pair this cool duck egg and linen colourway with chalky whites, pale timber and soft grey upholstery for a light, relaxed scheme. Use it for curtains, occasional chairs or cushions where the small flying-bird motifs can be appreciated across the 68 cm repeat.

Use this cool duck egg ground to bring a light, airy feel to relaxed upholstery, curtains or cushions, with the scattered bird print adding gentle movement.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Skies Above Duck Egg/Linen 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.
