About this fabric

This colourway in Florenza Sheers by Colefax and Fowler is made from 55% linen and 45% viscose, giving it the natural look of linen with a smoother, more fluid finish. The fabric is 127cm wide approximately, with a vertical repeat of 39cm and a horizontal repeat of 63cm approximately. In Leander Beige, the pattern sits quietly against the ground, with the outline catching the light in a muted sandy-beige tone that feels warm rather than stark. The sheer quality shown in the image makes the design suitable for rooms that need softness, daylight and visual texture without heaviness. Care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code Z apply to this fabric.

How to use it

Use Leander Beige for curtains in a calm sitting room, where its pale damask can add movement without overpowering the space. It works especially well with limestone, oak and other warm neutrals, letting the pattern read softly in daylight.

A warm, understated sheer that layers beautifully with relaxed neutrals or pale timber finishes.

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