About this fabric

The ground is a gentle ivory with a faint warm-grey cast, giving the colourway a softly muted depth rather than a stark white appearance. White embroidered sprigs repeat across the cloth, with leafy stems and small branching motifs standing clearly against the woven base. Its fine, even texture and fluid folds make it particularly suited to drapery, where the embroidery can be seen shifting across the gathers. This item is catalogued as a fabric; no composition, width or performance specification has been supplied.

How to use it

Use this soft ivory colourway for relaxed, full-length curtains where its white botanical embroidery can sit against warm timber, natural stone or similarly quiet neutrals. The low-contrast palette will keep a room bright while adding visible textile detail.

Use the soft ivory ground and white embroidered sprigs for gently gathered curtains in a calm, light-toned room.

Pairs well with

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