Menlo Cream

Elliot FabricL9389-02

Menlo Cream shows a quiet ivory tone with a fine herringbone-like weave that catches the light subtly across the surface. The effect is refined and understated, with just enough texture to keep the colour from feeling flat.

About this fabric

This Menlo Cream colourway reads as a warm, soft ivory rather than a bright white, with a calm chalky depth that flatters the fine woven pattern. The small herringbone effect gives the cloth a tailored look, and the surface has a gently heathered, wool-rich character visible in the weave. Made in a 46% Cotton, 42% Wool and 12% Polyester composition, it balances softness with structure, while the 130cm approx width makes it practical for a range of interior applications. The repeat is V 0cm / H 2cm approx, so the pattern sits neatly and continuously across a room setting. Care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code √BM are supplied for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Use this cream with pale oak, linen and brass for a layered neutral scheme, or pair it with deeper timber and muted green for added warmth. Its restrained tone works especially well where you want texture without introducing strong colour.

A soft, versatile cream that works beautifully on tailored upholstery or elegant curtains.

Pairs well with

Menlo Cream 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.
