Flynn Sienna is a warm, earthy linen with a quietly textured plain surface and a soft sienna-brown cast. The weave reads natural and breathable, with just enough variation to keep the colour feeling alive.

About this fabric

Woven in 100% linen and measuring approx. 139cm wide, Flynn Sienna is a plain fabric with no vertical or horizontal repeat, making it straightforward to cut and easy to use across a scheme. The swatch shows a warm terracotta-brown tone, softened by the slubby character and cross-grain texture of linen. Its finish feels relaxed rather than polished, with the colour sitting somewhere between sunbaked sienna and muted clay. The overall effect is understated, natural and versatile, especially where a grounded warm neutral is wanted.

How to use it

Use this colourway on a simple upholstered chair, banquette or loose cover to bring warmth without visual noise. It also makes a calm curtain fabric where the sienna tone can soften light and sit comfortably with oak, stone and aged brass.

A warm, earthy linen that works beautifully across upholstery and curtains for a natural, grounded look.

Pairs well with

Flynn Sienna 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.
