About this fabric

This colourway reads as a warm pearl ivory rather than a stark white, with a gentle depth that softens the surface without adding visible pattern. The cloth is 100% linen and has a plain appearance with no repeat, which lets the natural weave and slight tonal movement do the talking. At approximately 139cm wide, it is a practical fabric for both upholstery and drapery applications where a clean neutral is needed. The finish feels quietly tailored and smart, with enough texture to stop the shade from looking flat. Care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code √BM are noted for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Use Flynn Pearl to lift darker woods, stone floors and painted joinery, especially where you want the room to feel lighter without turning bright. Its soft ivory tone works particularly well with layered neutrals, pale oak and understated pattern.

A quietly elegant neutral that brings a clean, airy finish to classic interiors.

Flynn Pearl 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.
