About this fabric

Woven in 82% viscose and 18% linen, this fabric has a smooth, slightly slubby handle that suits both curtains and upholstery. The check repeats at approximately 12cm vertically and horizontally, giving the design a balanced, tidy rhythm across the cloth. In this colourway, the lilac stripes are softened to a dusty lavender, while the cream bands introduce a quiet warmth that stops the palette feeling cold. At approximately 140cm wide, it offers useful versatility for scheme planning, and the Q 8 + T 3 care code plus √BM fire code are supplied for reference.

How to use it

Use it where you want a pattern that is present but not pushy: a bedroom armchair, a window seat, or curtains in a light-filled room. The lilac tone works especially well with chalky whites, pale oak, and silvered greys.

A muted lilac check that feels fresh and easy rather than overly sweet.

Pairs well with

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