Digby Oyster

Name: Digby Oyster

SKU: EWV1DIGBY

Digby Oyster is a softly luminous neutral with a fine, pebble-like texture that reads calm and understated across the surface. The pale oyster tone has a gentle warmth, giving it a clean but not clinical look.

About this fabric

Woven in 100% polyester and specified for drapes only, Digby Oyster combines a practical cloth structure with a subtle, small-scale surface pattern. The fabric measures 140cm wide and has a repeat of 18cm vertical by 35cm horizontal, which supports a neat, ordered appearance in made-up curtains. In this colourway the finish is a delicate oyster ivory, with a low-contrast texture that catches the light softly rather than shining. At 321 grams per linear metre, it has enough substance to hang well while still feeling light in mood. The overall effect is crisp, quiet and versatile, especially where a pale neutral is needed without a stark white edge.

How to use it

Use Digby Oyster for floor-skimming curtains, relaxed Roman blinds or layered sheers in rooms that need a bright but gentle neutral. Its soft oyster tone works especially well alongside pale timber, putty walls and warm metallic finishes.

A refined pale neutral that brings a clean, quietly tailored finish to curtains and blinds.

Pairs well with

Digby Oyster 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.
