Hendrix Cornflower

Hendrix Cornflower is a soft, airy blue plain with a fine, lightly textural surface. The colour reads clean and cool, with a gentle heathered depth that stops it feeling flat.

About this fabric

This Hendrix colourway shows a pale cornflower blue with a slightly silvery cast, softened by the tight plain weave visible across the surface. The texture has a neat, pebbled character rather than a smooth sheen, giving the cloth a quietly tailored look. Made in 91% Polyester and 9% Nylon/Polyamide, it is specified for Contract use and carries a very high 100,000 Martindale rating, so it is well suited to demanding seating schemes. It is supplied back coated to Cigarette & Match to BS5852, with other treatments available on request, and should be professionally dry cleaned in situ.

How to use it

Use this cool blue on clean-lined upholstery to brighten darker woods or grey-painted joinery. Its soft, airy tone also works well alongside white, pale oak, and chalky neutrals for a crisp contract scheme.

A fresh, light blue that keeps a room feeling clean and composed.

Pairs well with

Hendrix Cornflower 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.
