Sahara Iii French Blue
Sahara Iii Fabric
Sahara III French Blue is a quiet, cool-toned textile with the softened character of blue-grey rather than a bright or saturated blue. Its plain face is enlivened by a fine, softly irregular woven texture.

About this fabric
This colourway presents a restrained French blue with a cool grey cast that gives the surface a calm, atmospheric depth. Fine vertical and horizontal threads create gentle tonal variation across the otherwise plain ground, producing a dry, tactile appearance in the light. The supplied catalogue records no performance features or further specification data for this fabric, so its defining details here are the muted blue tone and subtly textured weave.
How to use it
Pair the cool blue-grey ground with chalky whites, pale oak and soft grey for a relaxed contemporary scheme. It can also temper warmer timber and brass, adding a composed blue note without becoming dominant.
Use this cool blue-grey weave to bring quiet colour and subtle texture to upholstery or curtains.

Pairs well with
Sahara Iii French Blue 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.
