{"product_id":"gp-and-j-baker-lexham","title":"GP \u0026 J Baker | Lexham","description":"\u003cp\u003eLexham is a semi-plain with a 6 centimetre horizontal step and almost no vertical movement, so the cloth reads as a broad, soft banding rather than a stripe. The viscose and linen give it a dry face with a slight lustre where the light catches the step, and it is one of those weaves that changes character with the colourway: pale, it is a texture; dark, as here, it is closer to a shot cloth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe blend is 48 per cent viscose, 24 per cent linen, 20 per cent polyester and 8 per cent cotton, woven 135 centimetres wide and tested to 27,000 rubs, which the supplier rates for curtains, loose and fixed upholstery and bedspreads. Indigo is the colourway, a deep blue with a good deal of black in it that stays blue rather than turning navy under warm light, and it holds its depth at night.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe would use Lexham for curtains in a study or a dining room, on a pair of chairs against a pale wall, or as the dark note on a window seat in an otherwise neutral room. It is good with brass, walnut and cream, and it takes a cream or ochre piping well. On cushions it gives a plain sofa a strong edge without pattern. Sold by the half metre; order a sample to see it in your own light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMatch the horizontal banding across every seam, and on a pair of curtains set the bands at the same height on both leading edges. At 135 centimetres this is a narrow cloth, so check your width calculations before ordering. Deep colours show wear on arms and seat fronts sooner than mid tones, so consider loose arm caps on a chair that will be used daily.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eComposition:\u003c\/strong\u003e 48% viscose, 24% linen, 20% polyester, 8% cotton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 135 cm (53 in)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePattern repeat:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2 cm vertical, 6 cm horizontal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbrasion resistance:\u003c\/strong\u003e 27,000 rubs (Martindale)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCare:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dry clean only; do not wash, bleach or iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCollection:\u003c\/strong\u003e Essential Colour III, GP \u0026amp; J Baker\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColourways:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 (Indigo)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GP \u0026 J Baker","offers":[{"title":"Indigo","offer_id":58050937127294,"sku":"BF11217.1","price":64.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Sample - Indigo","offer_id":58050937160062,"sku":"SAMPLE-BF11217.1","price":2.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/9880\/0766\/files\/BF11217_1.png?v=1789682615","url":"https:\/\/shop.tobiasoliverinteriors.com\/products\/gp-and-j-baker-lexham","provider":"Tobias Oliver","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
