Brunswick Indigo

Archive IV The Collector Fabrics FabricMOF0078-10

Brunswick Indigo combines a deep, cool indigo ground with closely spaced taupe zigzags, creating a compact woven check with a distinctly graphic surface. Flecks of muted teal appear within the dark colouring as the weave catches the light.

About this fabric

This substantial textile weighs 710 gsm and has a tightly worked appearance, making it well suited to upholstery rather than a light, fluid drapery application. The small-scale chevron structure alternates dark indigo and warm taupe so the surface reads as textured and dimensional from a short distance. With 18 threads per centimetre, the weave has a visibly dense, even character. It is supplied at a 140 cm usable width, with both vertical and horizontal pattern repeats recorded as 0 cm.

How to use it

Use Brunswick Indigo on a statement armchair, sofa or dining chair where its cool navy depth can anchor a room. Pair it with warm timber, aged brass and plain taupe textiles to pick up the lighter zigzag threads without competing with the small-scale pattern.

A substantial indigo-and-taupe woven check that brings graphic rhythm to upholstered seating.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Brunswick Indigo 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.
