Faroe Ocean is a cool, deep blue-grey woven in a finely repeated herringbone that reads almost charcoal at a distance. Pale threads pick out the small directional pattern across the surface.

About this fabric

The compact herringbone gives this colourway a crisp, subtly textured appearance, with light catching the pale flecks against its dark blue-grey ground. Faroe Ocean is approximately 137cm wide and combines 40% wool with cotton, viscose, linen and polyester. Its supplied usage is curtains and fixed upholstery, with Contract and General Domestic upholstery grades. After-care is dry clean.

How to use it

Use the cool blue-grey tone to temper warm timber, stone and brass, or pair it with chalky whites and muted lilacs for a quieter scheme. The small herringbone is well suited to tailored curtains, dining seats and understated upholstered pieces.

A cool blue-grey herringbone weave that brings subtle texture to curtains, fixed upholstery and tailored interiors.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Faroe Ocean without fighting it. 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.
