Hector Cream
Hector FabricF4697-06
Hector Cream is a softly lit ivory tone with the natural slub and fine weave of 100% linen. Its surface reads calm and understated, with just enough texture to keep the plain colourway from feeling flat.

About this fabric
This Cream colourway has a gentle warm-white cast rather than a stark optic look, so it feels mellow and quietly refined in the cloth. The linen weave is visible throughout, with a faint slubby texture that gives the surface a natural, relaxed character. With a width of approximately 139cm and a repeat of V 0cm / H 2cm approx, it is straightforward to pattern match while keeping the finish unobtrusive. The care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code √BM make it suitable for considered interior use where a neat, tailored result is wanted.
How to use it
Use this soft cream linen for relaxed curtains, tailored blind treatments, or light upholstery where you want brightness without glare. It pairs especially well with pale timber, putty, and warmer neutrals, letting the texture carry the interest.
A quietly elegant neutral that works across classic schemes and airy contemporary rooms.

Pairs well with
Hector Cream 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.
