Somerton Stripe Old Blue

Mulberry Small Prints FabricFD2013.H60

Somerton Stripe Old Blue pairs a warm, parchment-like ground with slender muted blue-grey lines running vertically across the cloth. The closely spaced stripes give the swatch a calm, tailored rhythm, while the woven surface keeps the colourway softly natural rather than stark.

About this fabric

Made from 82% viscose and 18% linen, this 137 cm-wide fabric has a small horizontal pattern repeat of 3.7 cm. Its narrow vertical stripes alternate between pale beige and a cool, softened old blue, creating gentle contrast that reads more nuanced than nautical. The fine surface has a lightly tactile woven character, with the blue lines adding definition without overwhelming the neutral ground. It is specified for curtains, loose upholstery, fixed upholstery and bedspreads; professional dry cleaning is required, and it must not be washed, bleached or ironed.

How to use it

Use the beige ground as a bridge between chalky walls and natural wood, allowing the muted old-blue stripes to pick up cooler accents in cushions or painted furniture. Its restrained contrast is particularly suited to tailored curtains, occasional upholstery and calm bedroom bedspreads.

A fine, quietly tailored stripe that brings cool old-blue definition to neutral upholstery, curtains and bedspreads.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Somerton Stripe Old Blue 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.
