About this fabric

The substantial 510 gsm cloth is arranged in alternating vertical stripes, including small floral-like motifs, chevrons and irregular russet-and-indigo accents on a cream base. The warm rust tones add earthy richness, while the dark indigo provides a cooler, more graphic counterpoint. A 38 cm vertical repeat and 67.3 cm horizontal repeat define the alignment of the detailed woven pattern. With a 135 cm usable width, this weighty textile is particularly well suited to upholstery where its structured stripe can be shown clearly.

How to use it

Pair the russet bands with warm timber, leather or terracotta accents, while the indigo details can connect with cooler blue furnishings. On a chair or sofa, the vertical layout brings a tailored, architectural rhythm to the form.

Use the warm russet and deep indigo striping to bring graphic definition and woven depth to upholstered seating.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Bloomsbury Stripe Russet/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.
