About this fabric

This Delft Blue colourway reads as a cool, saturated navy-blue with a slight heathered effect, giving the surface more movement than a flat solid. The plain design has a velvety-looking finish in the image, with subtle tonal shifts that soften the depth of the shade. Made in 100% polyester and specified for contract use, it offers a robust 80,000 Martindale, making it well suited to demanding upholstery applications. It is supplied back coated to Cigarette & Match to BS5852, with other treatments available on request, and can be professionally cleaned in situ or washed at 40℃ according to the pattern book.

How to use it

Use this deep blue to anchor a booth, accent chair or banquette where you want colour without brightness. It pairs neatly with pale oak, brushed brass and chalky neutrals for a crisp, tailored look.

A rich dark blue that brings depth to tailored seating and contract schemes.

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.
