Malmo Sheer Blue

Name: Malmo Sheer Blue
Brand: Isle Mill

Malmo Sheer Blue has a cool, pale blue-grey ground woven with evenly spaced darker blue windowpane lines. Its open, delicate weave allows the check to remain light rather than dominant.

About this fabric

The fine sheer construction is clearly visible in the close-up, with tiny open weave spaces giving the surface a gently airy texture. Narrow charcoal-blue lines create a regular medium-scale check across the pale blue-grey base, adding quiet definition without heaviness. The blue reads muted and slightly silvery, with the open cloth allowing the lighter ground to catch the eye between the lines. No further specification data is supplied for this fabric.

How to use it

Hang Malmo Sheer Blue as softly gathered curtains where its cool blue-grey tone can temper warm white walls, pale timber and understated upholstery. The charcoal-blue check also gives a restrained link to deeper blue or grey accents.

Use this cool, lightly checked sheer for softly filtered curtains in calm, pared-back rooms.

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.
