Panache Linen has a softly muted pale taupe ground, crossed by delicate white looping lines in an irregular all-over pattern. The subtle vertical texture gives the surface a quiet, tactile depth.

About this fabric

The warm taupe base is gently shaded rather than flat, with fine vertical slubbing visible beneath the crisp white broken-line motifs. Overlapping loops and curved paths create an airy, graphic pattern without overwhelming the softly neutral colourway. At 313 gsm and 136 cm usable width, this is a versatile mid-weight fabric suitable for both upholstery and drapery. Its 23.5 cm vertical repeat and 22.7 cm horizontal repeat establish a measured rhythm for pattern placement.

How to use it

Use this pale taupe colourway on relaxed upholstery or full-length curtains where its white tracery can lift a neutral scheme. Combine it with chalky whites, pale oak and woven textures to echo the fabric’s soft, tactile character.

Pair the pale taupe ground with warm woods, soft whites and tactile natural textures.

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