About this fabric

Woven in 67% linen and 33% viscose, this fabric has the relaxed, natural handle you would expect from a sheer with a fine visible texture. The 140cm approximate width suits curtains and light decorative drapery, while the V 59cm / H 69cm repeat creates a leafy trailing pattern with a measured rhythm. In Gabriella Silver, the ground reads as soft ivory rather than bright white, and the embroidery lands in a muted silver-beige tone that feels cool and understated. The overall effect is airy and refined, with enough body in the weave to hold the embroidered motif clearly as daylight passes through. Care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code Z are supplied for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Use Gabriella Silver where you want daylight softened rather than blocked: it works beautifully at tall windows, layered over a lining or behind heavier curtains. The silvered ivory tone pairs naturally with pale woods, limestone, brushed metals and quiet neutral upholstery.

Sheer enough for soft light, with a refined leaf embroidery that keeps the look elegant and quiet.

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