About this fabric

The fabric reads as a delicate blue-grey, with the silver element lightening the colour across the face of the cloth. A tiny, even weave is visible in the close-up, creating subtle texture while keeping the surface visually calm. The fine construction and lack of pattern make this colourway especially suited to understated drapery where the cool tone can sit quietly against a room’s other finishes.

How to use it

Use Kara Silver Blue for softly tailored curtains in a cool, tranquil room, alongside white, chalk grey or pale timber accents. Its muted blue cast brings gentle colour without becoming saturated or dominant.

Pair this cool silver-blue with crisp whites, soft greys and pale natural woods for a calm, tailored scheme.

Pairs well with

Kara Silver 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.
