About this fabric

Woven in 100% linen, Foss Linen II in Dark Teal has a small, even weave that reads smooth and natural rather than slubby or rustic. The fabric is plain with no repeat, so the colour takes centre stage: a deep aqua-teal with a greyed edge that keeps it calm and architectural. At approximately 138cm wide, it is a practical cloth for made-to-measure projects, and the Q 8 + T 3 care code plus √BM fire code make it straightforward to specify. The finish looks fresh but grounded, with enough body for upholstery and enough softness for drapery.

How to use it

Use this dark teal with pale oak, chalk white or brushed brass for a crisp, tailored scheme. It also works well as a colour anchor against warm neutrals, where the cool teal reads richer and more layered.

A cool teal linen that suits tailored upholstery or crisp curtains.

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.
