Madison Ivory is a pale, softly shaded textile with closely spaced undulating lines running vertically across its surface. Its ivory ground is gently enlivened by fine taupe-grey texture, giving the pattern a quiet, dimensional finish.

About this fabric

The woven-looking design forms repeated, narrow wave or chevron lines, with the pale taupe detailing appearing and receding as the light moves across the cloth. This colourway stays warm and understated rather than stark white, making the ivory ground feel calm and softly layered. At 540 gsm, it is a substantial fabric suited to upholstery, while its 137 cm usable width offers practical coverage for furniture projects. The pattern repeats every 4.5 cm vertically and 3 cm horizontally, creating a close-scale rhythm rather than a bold, oversized motif.

How to use it

Use Madison Ivory on a reading chair, headboard or tailored sofa in a warm neutral room, pairing its soft ivory base with taupe, chalk and light timber tones. The fine vertical movement can add texture to plain upholstery without competing with stronger furnishings.

Use this softly patterned ivory upholstery on tailored seating where its fine taupe waves can add quiet movement without dominating the room.

Pairs well with

Madison Ivory 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.
