Gobi Fabric

Gobi Marine is a cool, greyed marine blue with a restrained blue-green cast. Across the swatch, a fine all-over weave and tiny tonal flecks create a softly textured, misted surface rather than a flat block of colour.

About this fabric

Rendered in a cool marine blue softened with grey-green, Gobi Marine has a quiet, mineral depth rather than a bright or saturated blue. The close, fine weave is visibly flecked, with tiny pale and darker threads breaking up the surface and giving it a gently heathered appearance. Its even face reads as a plain textile at room scale, while the subtle yarn variation becomes clearer close up. No performance features are noted for this colourway, and no composition, width or rub-test figures have been supplied.

How to use it

Use Gobi Marine on seating where its muted blue-green tone can act as a calm foundation for pale wood, chalky neutrals or darker blue accents. Its finely flecked surface adds interest without introducing a strong pattern.

A cool, softly flecked marine teal that brings quiet colour and texture to upholstered seating.

Pairs well with

Gobi Marine 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.
