About this fabric

The colour sits between blue and grey, with a softly softened depth rather than a bright or highly saturated finish. A close, even weave creates subtle tonal variation across the surface as the light catches the threads. The swatch appears visually plain, with no distinct printed motif visible, allowing the restrained texture and slate tone to lead. No further composition, width or performance specifications were supplied for this fabric.

How to use it

Pair this slate-blue colourway with warm off-whites, weathered wood and brushed metal for a quietly tailored room. It can add depth to a sofa or chair while remaining sufficiently restrained for full-length curtains or blinds.

Use this calm slate-blue textile to bring softly tailored colour to upholstery, curtains or blinds.

Osumi Batik is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. 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.
