About this fabric

The design sets broad indigo-blue fields against narrow ivory and blue stripes, with repeated navy floral bands crossing the check at regular intervals. The 465 gsm weight and 29.11 threads per cm indicate a substantial, closely woven cloth suited to upholstery. It has a usable width of 135 cm, with a 40 cm vertical repeat and 33.6 cm horizontal repeat to consider when pattern matching. In this colourway, the cool blue reads quietly saturated, while the pale stripes bring definition and the dark bands add depth.

How to use it

Use Hanover Check Indigo on a traditional armchair, sofa or dining chair where its cool blue depth can anchor a room. Pick up the ivory striping with warm off-white walls, and soften the graphic check with oak, cane or tan leather.

Use this cool indigo check on upholstered seating, pairing it with warm ivory and natural timber to balance its graphic structure.

Pairs well with

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