Kiku Bilberry

Kiku Bilberry has a cool, subdued blue-grey tone, closely animated by fine pale threads across the surface. Its tightly woven appearance gives the colourway a softly textured, gently checked character.

About this fabric

The colour sits between softened bilberry blue and blue-grey, with lighter threads creating a small interlaced grid rather than a flat block of colour. In the close-up, the compact weave produces subtle horizontal and vertical variation, while the pale flecks keep the darker ground from feeling heavy. The overall effect is calm and cool, with enough tonal movement to remain tactile at close range. No composition, width, rub test or performance features have been supplied for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Use this cool blue-grey colourway to add quiet contrast to warm timber, chalky neutrals or stone shades. Its fine checked texture would suit a tailored armchair, compact sofa, cushions or understated blinds where the weave can be seen up close.

A cool blue-grey woven texture that brings quiet depth to upholstery, cushions or softly tailored window treatments.

Pairs well with

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