Hector Clotted Cream
Hector FabricF4697-24
Hector Clotted Cream is a softly luminous linen with barely-there horizontal striping and a warm, milky off-white ground. The effect is quiet and understated, with the weave adding just enough texture to keep the surface from looking flat.

About this fabric
Woven in 100% linen and approximately 139cm wide, Hector has a refined, natural handle that suits both curtains and upholstery. In Clotted Cream, the colour reads as a warm ivory with a faint buttery undertone, softened further by the gentle 2cm approx horizontal repeat. The stripe is so restrained that it appears more as a change in texture than a bold pattern, giving the cloth a calm, tailored look. The light, airy finish makes this colourway especially good for spaces that need softness without visual weight.
How to use it
This shade works beautifully on relaxed armchairs, Roman blinds, or full-length drapes where the warm cream tone can brighten the room without feeling stark. Pair it with oak, pale painted woods, and natural textures for an easy country-house feel.
Use for calm, layered interiors where a warm off-white linen is wanted.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Hector Clotted Cream without fighting it. 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.
