Pure Petrol

Pure Petrol gives the Chelsea fabric a deep, cool blue-teal character, with the density of the shade visible across the plain surface. A fine mottled weave adds quiet depth without introducing a formal pattern.

About this fabric

In this Pure Petrol colourway, Chelsea reads as a deep blue-teal rather than a bright turquoise. The close-up reveals fine tonal variation through the woven surface, creating a softly textured appearance across the otherwise plain fabric. Its finish looks matte, allowing the petrol shade to remain dense and composed as the light changes. The restrained texture gives this colourway a tailored presence on upholstered furniture.

How to use it

Pair Pure Petrol with warm timber, aged brass and muted stone upholstery to balance its cool, saturated depth. It also creates a strong, calm block of colour against pale walls and natural woven accents.

A deep, cool petrol tone with subtle woven variation for tailored upholstery.

Pairs well with

Pure Petrol 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.
