About this fabric

The fabric has a fine horizontal weave that gives the navy background a subtly textured, tailored appearance rather than a flat printed finish. Repeated medium-scale paisleys create a clear rhythm across the surface, with curved grey outlines contrasting against the dark ground. Inside each paisley, alternating blue and pale checks add a crisp graphic accent without overpowering the sombre navy tone. This is catalogued as a fabric, with no performance features noted in the supplied specification.

How to use it

Use Serge Navy where a room needs a cool, grounded blue with disciplined pattern, such as a tailored chair, bench, blind or pair of curtains. Balance its dark tone with pale upholstery plains, warm timber or brushed metal so the grey outlines and checked centres remain visible.

The deep navy ground and orderly paisley pattern bring tailored colour and graphic detail to upholstery or drapery.

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