About this fabric

The surface is formed from a small, close-set geometric repeat, with pale rounded diamond-like shapes picked out against blue-grey and charcoal elements. French blue reads as a softened, cool shade rather than a bright or saturated navy, giving the pattern a calm depth. The woven texture adds gentle visual variation as the light moves across the swatch, while the charcoal details keep the small-scale design defined. As a structured textile fabric, it is particularly suited to upholstery where this neat, patterned surface can remain visible.

How to use it

Use this cool French blue on an occasional chair, compact sofa or dining seat, pairing it with chalky neutrals and charcoal-painted or dark timber details to echo the swatch’s contrast.

A cool, structured geometric weave that brings subtle pattern and crisp contrast to upholstered seating.

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.
