About this fabric

This colourway in Foss Linen II is woven in 100% linen and has no visible repeat, which keeps the surface calm and understated. At approximately 138cm wide, it is a practical furnishing cloth for tailored seams and generous drops, and the Q 8 + T 3 care code makes it suitable for everyday interior use. The fabric shows a very fine, tight weave with a dry linen handle, while the Pale Pearl shade sits between ivory and soft chalk, avoiding anything stark or cool. Its light, even tone gives the cloth a refined simplicity that feels fresh rather than crisp.

How to use it

Use this pale pearl linen where you want light without glare: tailored curtains, relaxed roman blinds, or a clean-lined upholstery piece. It pairs especially well with blond woods, stone, and deeper neutral accents that let the soft ivory tone breathe.

A softly luminous neutral that works beautifully across upholstery and curtains alike.

Pairs well with

Foss Pale 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.
