Amalfi Cadet is a solid, cool-toned blue with a soft matte look and subtle depth in the pile. The colour reads as a restrained cadet shade rather than a bright navy, giving it a composed, tailored feel.

About this fabric

Part of the Amalfi collection by J Brown, this plain fabric is woven in 100% polyester and specified for contract use. It has a robust 60,000 Martindale, with a back coating to cigarette and match to BS5852, and other treatments available on request. In this swatch, the finish appears gently brushed and low-sheen, which softens the deep blue-green undertone and keeps the surface looking calm rather than glossy. The shade is dark, cool and slightly muted, making it especially effective where a smart, architectural colour is needed.

How to use it

Use Amalfi Cadet on armchairs, banquettes or headboards when you want a strong but not harsh blue. It pairs well with pale oak, chalky neutrals and brushed metals, where its cool depth can anchor the room.

A cool, tonal blue that gives seating a tailored, understated finish.

Pairs well with

Amalfi Cadet 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.
