About this fabric

The fabric shows a dense, small-scale basket weave made from closely interlaced threads, creating a subtle checked effect rather than a printed motif. Cobalt blue dominates, while grey, muted teal and lighter blue threads bring a lightly mottled depth to the colourway. The textured surface catches the light in tiny points, keeping the dark blue from appearing flat. Its substantial-looking woven construction makes it a natural choice for tailored upholstery.

How to use it

Pair this cool cobalt colourway with warm timber, chalky neutrals or aged brass to balance its deep blue tone. It would bring a smart, quietly patterned finish to a sofa, armchair or dining seat.

Use this cool cobalt weave on tailored upholstery, where its fine checked texture adds quiet depth.

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.
