About this fabric
The colour reads as a restrained steel blue, tempered by the lighter threads running across the weave rather than appearing as a flat saturated blue. A closely packed crosshatch structure is visible across the swatch, creating a lightly nubby, textile-led surface with small variations in tone. The muted teal notes emerge within the blue-grey ground and add a quiet coolness as the light shifts across the cloth. No performance features, composition, width or rub-test information has been supplied for this fabric.
How to use it
Pair Mendel Steel Blue with chalky whites, pale oak and cool grey for a calm, coastal-leaning scheme, or use it against charcoal to bring out the depth of its blue-grey weave. Its understated texture would suit a tailored sofa, occasional chair or full-length curtain.
Use this cool steel blue-grey weave to bring quiet depth to upholstery, cushions or softly tailored curtains.

Pairs well with
Mendel Steel Blue 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.
