Mulberry Ticking Blue

Mulberry Ticking Blue shows closely spaced vertical stripes in a cool, softened blue-lilac over a pale ground. The fine ticking gives the surface a gently rhythmic, almost pencil-drawn appearance.

About this fabric

Woven from 100% cotton and measuring 134 cm wide, this colourway has a delicate, tightly spaced stripe that reads blue at a distance and reveals a subtle lilac cast up close. Its 16,000 Martindale rub test supports use for loose and fixed upholstery as well as curtains and bedspreads. The restrained contrast keeps the pattern relaxed rather than formal, while the narrow vertical lines can lend height and neatness to a piece. Care is professional dry cleaning only; do not wash, bleach or iron.

How to use it

Pair the cool blue-lilac stripe with chalky whites, pale timber and soft grey-blue accents for a fresh bedroom or sitting room scheme. Its narrow vertical rhythm works particularly well on relaxed curtains, upholstered headboards and compact occasional chairs.

Use its cool, finely striped blue-lilac ground for relaxed curtains, bedspreads or tailored upholstery.

Pairs well with

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