About this fabric

The soft ivory cream ground is overlaid with fine taupe-grey ornamental lines, creating gentle definition without a strong contrast. Small paisley and scrolling motifs form a dense, all-over design, while the lightly textured surface keeps the pale shade from appearing flat. With a 136 cm usable width and a 207 gsm weight, Ada Linen is a versatile mid-weight fabric suited to both upholstery and drapery. The pattern has a 67 cm vertical repeat and a 34 cm horizontal repeat, useful details when planning a larger installation.

How to use it

Use this warm, pale ivory colourway on a relaxed armchair or full-length curtains where its fine tonal paisley can read as texture from a distance. Layer it with chalk, oatmeal and soft grey furnishings to retain its restrained, light-filled mood.

Use this soft ivory paisley as a quietly elegant base for upholstery, curtains or layered neutral schemes.

Pairs well with

Ada Linen 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.
