About this fabric

Woven in 100% linen, Waltham Stripe Navy has the relaxed handle and lightly slubbed texture associated with natural fibre cloth. The design features a vertical stripe layout in the image, with alternating soft navy and warm cream bands that read crisp rather than high-contrast. The supplied repeat is V 0cm / H 7cm approx, and the width is 152cm approx, making it suitable for measured upholstery projects as well as lighter furnishing uses. Its smart, restrained colourway feels fresh and nautical without becoming brash, and the linen surface softens the stripe edges slightly in the light.

How to use it

Use it on a tailored armchair, ottoman, or café-style blinds where the navy stripe can add structure. It also works well with pale oak, painted joinery, and simple white upholstery for a fresh, coastal scheme.

Pair with chalky linens and pale timber for a crisp, tailored look.

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.
