About this fabric

The design is formed from intersecting narrow and wider checks, with the softened green and blue-grey tones giving the pattern a cool, quiet depth. Warm tan and rust-coloured lines bring gentle contrast without overpowering the pale ground. The visible surface has a tactile woven variation that keeps the plaid from looking flat or overly precise. No composition, width or rub-test specification is supplied for this colourway.

How to use it

Use this muted eau de nil check on relaxed upholstery or full-length curtains, balancing it with warm timber, ivory linen and touches of blue-grey.

Pair the softened eau de nil checks with natural woods, warm neutrals and blue-grey accents for a quietly layered scheme.

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.
