Honfleur Lin

Deauville FabricM4207-01

Honfleur Lin shows a fine, orderly micro-check in a very soft cream ground, with the pattern only just lifting from the surface. The effect is light, airy and understated rather than graphic.

About this fabric

Woven in 100% linen, Honfleur Lin has the natural matte handle and crisp textural character you expect from the fibre, while the 152cm approx width makes it practical for larger projects. The repeat is a neat V 1cm / H 1cm approx, creating a tiny checked structure that reads as a delicate grid from a distance. This colourway sits in a pale linen cream with a whisper of beige and grey, so the check is visible without feeling busy or contrasty. Its restrained tone keeps the pattern calm and refined, making it suitable for schemes that need texture more than colour. Care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code √BM are supplied for this fabric.

How to use it

Use this colourway on relaxed curtains, tailored cushions or light upholstery where you want softness without losing pattern. It works especially well with oak, stone, putty and other warm neutrals.

A quiet neutral that layers easily with pale woods, chalky paintwork and washed oak furniture.

Pairs well with

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