Blenets Check Limestone

Harlequin x Henry Holland Fabrics FabricHAF0580-05

Blenets Check Limestone presents a generous, evenly spaced check in soft off-white and muted limestone taupe. Its gently textured surface gives the pale colourway a softened, tactile appearance rather than a stark graphic contrast.

About this fabric

At 640gsm, this is a substantial fabric with a closely textured surface visible across the swatch, making it well suited to upholstery. The 24cm vertical and 27cm horizontal repeats form a measured grid of alternating warm off-white and subdued limestone-taupe squares. With a 135.6cm usable width, it offers practical coverage for upholstered panels and seating applications. The stated 39.5 threads per centimetre contributes to the compact, even-looking weave seen in the close-up.

How to use it

Use the quiet limestone tone on a sofa, headboard or occasional chair where the large check can add structure without dominating the room. Pair it with chalky whites, warm timber and soft taupe furnishings to retain its muted, relaxed character.

Use this muted limestone-and-ivory check to bring quiet graphic structure to upholstered seating.

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