Foss Ivory is a calm, almost chalky ivory linen with a very subtle woven texture and an even, pared-back surface. The colour reads soft and light rather than bright white, giving it a gentle warmth.

About this fabric

Woven in 100% linen, Foss Ivory has a natural matte handle and a fine, understated texture that shows just enough grain in the light. The design has no visible repeat, so the focus stays on the cloth's quiet surface and its smooth, uninterrupted ivory tone. At approximately 138cm wide, it is a versatile plain fabric for both upholstery and drapery where a soft, unpatterned finish is wanted. The Q 8 + T 3 care code and √BM fire code support practical use in interiors while keeping the look refined and restrained.

How to use it

Use this ivory shade to soften a room layered with timber, pale stone, or warmer neutrals. It is especially effective on relaxed curtains, loose covers, and pared-back seating where you want light without glare.

A clean ivory linen that works quietly across upholstery and curtains.

Pairs well with

Foss Ivory 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.
