Shasta Linen Fabric is shown here in a softly muted taupe-grey, with a fine woven surface that shifts subtly between warm grey and pale beige. The close view reveals a delicate diagonal texture rather than a printed motif.

About this fabric

The colourway has a gentle, low-contrast depth, reading as warm grey with a restrained taupe cast under the light. Its fine diagonal weave gives the otherwise quiet ground a lightly tactile, linen-like character. The tightly constructed surface appears suited to a versatile mid-weight textile application, including upholstery and drapery. No composition, width, usage or rub-test specification is supplied for this fabric, so those details should be confirmed before ordering.

How to use it

Pair the soft taupe-grey tone with chalky whites, natural timber and warm stone for a calm, textural scheme. Its subtle woven movement also works well on an occasional chair, headboard or relaxed curtain where a quiet surface is preferred.

Use this softly muted taupe-grey weave to bring quiet texture to upholstery, cushions or understated window treatments.

Pairs well with

Shasta Linen Fabric is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. 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.
