About this fabric

Woven in 100% linen, Foss Sage has a relaxed, textural surface that reads clean and natural in the cloth. The colour is a softened sage green with cool grey notes, so it feels calm rather than bright or grassy. With a repeat of vertical 0cm and horizontal 0cm approximately, the fabric presents as a plain, easy-to-place ground. At 138cm wide, it suits a wide range of upholstery and soft furnishing projects, and the Q 8 + T 3 care code plus √BM fire code make it straightforward to specify.

How to use it

Use Foss Sage on a tailored armchair, bench or loose cover to bring a quiet green note into neutral rooms. It also pairs well with limestone, weathered oak and oatmeal textiles for a soft, layered scheme.

A calm sage linen that works beautifully across upholstery and soft furnishings.

Pairs well with

Foss Sage 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.
