About this fabric

This plain fabric from the Eaton Checks and Stripes collection is composed of 82% viscose and 18% linen, with a width of approximately 143cm and no repeat. In the image, the old pink shade reads as a muted blush with a warm, dusty cast, and the fine weave gives it a lightly striated, softly irregular appearance. The surface has a relaxed, tactile look that keeps the colour from feeling overly polished, while the tonal variation adds depth without introducing a visible pattern. With no performance features noted and a fire code of √BM, it is best suited to schemes where a refined but unfussy finish is wanted.

How to use it

Use this old pink as a gentle upholstery choice on a fauteuil, banquette or occasional chair, where the subdued tone will sit comfortably against oak, pale timber or aged brass. It also works well for drapery in rooms that need warmth without a strong colour statement, especially alongside cream, taupe or soft grey.

A muted pink with a gentle linen slub, ideal for easy, elegant schemes.

Pairs well with

Eaton Plain Old Pink 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.
