About this fabric

This Orton collection fabric is visibly woven with slender vertical bands, combining blue-grey threads with pale cream and grey flecks. The blue reads muted and cool rather than bright, while the tightly spaced stripe creates steady visual rhythm across the cloth. Its structured appearance suggests a versatile mid-weight suitable for both upholstery and drapery. No composition, width, rub-test or additional performance specification has been supplied for this colourway.

How to use it

Pair the cool blue-grey stripe with chalky whites, soft greys and natural timber for a calm, tailored scheme. Its narrow vertical rhythm would work particularly well on a compact armchair, Roman blind or full-length curtain.

Use this cool blue-grey stripe to bring gentle structure to upholstery, curtains or cushions without overpowering a room.

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