Obie Tourmaline

Elson Fabric

Obie Tourmaline pairs a pale aqua-teal ground with slender cream stripes that run vertically across the swatch. The close-set lines have a gently irregular rhythm, giving the colourway a softer character than a strictly uniform stripe.

About this fabric

The pale aqua-teal shade reads cool and airy, while the cream lines add subtle contrast without breaking the overall softness. Narrow bands of differing width create the visible vertical movement, and the surface appears finely woven with a restrained, even texture. In the supplied information, no performance features are listed for this colourway; its defining appeal here is the calm, light-catching stripe arrangement. The fine appearance makes it especially suited to drapery where the vertical direction can be appreciated.

How to use it

Use Obie Tourmaline for full-length curtains or relaxed Roman blinds in rooms that benefit from a pale aqua lift. Pair it with warm ivory, bleached timber and soft natural neutrals to echo the cream striping without losing the colourway’s cool clarity.

Fine, close-set vertical stripes in pale aqua-teal and cream bring a softly coastal, light-reflective feel to curtains.

Pairs well with

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