About this fabric

This 137cm-wide Faroe fabric combines 16% linen, 18% viscose, 20% cotton, 40% wool and 6% polyester in a compact woven construction. Its small herringbone repeats are clearly visible across the swatch, creating restrained movement rather than a bold pattern. The azure tone reads calm and cool, with a slightly softened grey cast that keeps the colour versatile while retaining blue depth. Rated for Contract and General Domestic use, it is suitable for curtains and fixed upholstery and should be dry cleaned.

How to use it

Use Faroe Azure on an upholstered armchair, headboard or tailored sofa where its cool blue-grey tone can bring quiet colour without overwhelming the room. It also makes understated curtains, particularly alongside chalky whites, pale timber and brushed metal.

A cool, finely textured blue herringbone with the versatility for curtains and fixed upholstery.

Pairs well with

Faroe Azure 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.
