Flynn Linen FabricF4890-02

Flynn Off White is a clean, softly warming linen with a very low-contrast woven surface. In this colourway, the cloth reads as a gentle off-white rather than a stark white.

About this fabric

Woven in 100% linen and measuring approximately 139cm wide, Flynn Off White has a plain, no-repeat appearance that keeps the focus on its natural texture. The surface shows a fine, slightly slubby linen character with subtle horizontal and vertical thread movement visible in the light. Its tone is an easy off-white with a faint creamy warmth, giving it a softer look than a bright optic white. With care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code √BM, it is a practical fabric choice for schemes that want understatement without feeling cold.

How to use it

Use this shade where you want a calm, breathable backdrop: tailored curtains, loose covers, or upholstered pieces in light-filled rooms. Its warm neutrality pairs especially well with pale oak, limewash walls and layered natural textures.

A quiet off-white linen that works beautifully on relaxed upholstery or airy window treatments.

Pairs well with

Flynn Off White 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.
