Rock Fabric

Rock Indigo is a deep, cool blue textile with a softly mottled surface. Its even colour is enlivened by fine textural variation, giving the swatch quiet depth rather than a flat finish.

About this fabric

The fabric reads as a dense, finely textured woven surface in a saturated indigo blue, with subtle lighter and darker flecks visible across the swatch. Its cool undertone gives the colour a composed, slightly atmospheric character, while the close texture keeps it from appearing stark or glossy. The supplied catalogue records no performance features and provides no further specification data for this colourway.

How to use it

Use Rock Indigo on an armchair, headboard or sofa where its cool blue depth can anchor a room. Pair it with chalky whites, soft grey, pale timber or warm tan accents to balance the shade without competing with its texture.

The cool, deep indigo tone brings calm definition to upholstered seating and contrasts well with pale neutrals.

Pairs well with

Rock Indigo 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.
