About this fabric

The swatch shows a compact plain weave, with fine horizontal and vertical threads creating a subtle textile grid rather than a printed motif. Its slate-blue ground reads cool and muted, while darker grey threads temper the colour and prevent it from appearing bright or saturated. At approximately 137cm wide, this fabric is specified for Fixed Upholstery in Contract and General Domestic settings. Its composition is 55% Acrylic, 16% Recycled Polyester, 15% Viscose, 9% Polyester and 5% Linen, with Dry Clean after-care.

How to use it

Use this cool slate-blue on a tailored sofa, dining chair or occasional chair where its restrained colour and fine woven texture can sit comfortably with grey, charcoal and pale timber. The plain surface also makes it a useful grounding upholstery alongside stronger patterns.

A cool slate-blue plain weave with subtle charcoal variation for tailored upholstered seating.

Pairs well with

Stresa Slate 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.
