Anna Ticking Blue

Weave Fabric

Anna Ticking Blue shows fine vertical blue stripes alternating with warm cream ground stripes. The close-set woven lines have a softly textured, textile-like surface rather than a printed flatness.

About this fabric

The colourway combines a cool, muted blue with a gentle cream, giving the stripe a calm, tailored character. Narrow darker lines sit beside finer textured blue lines, creating subtle depth as the light moves across the surface. The visible weave reads as a versatile mid-weight textile, suitable for either upholstery or drapery. No composition, width or rub-test specification has been supplied for this colourway.

How to use it

Use the restrained blue-and-cream palette in a coastal, country or quietly classic room, where the vertical stripe can sharpen upholstered seating or hang neatly at a window.

Use the cool blue-and-cream stripe to bring tailored definition to seating, cushions or full-length curtains.

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