About this fabric

Woven in 100% linen, this Colefax and Fowler fabric has a narrow, rhythmic pattern with a vertical 0cm repeat and an approximate 2cm horizontal repeat. The Old Pink colourway is a muted blush with warm beige undertones, so the design feels gentle and airy rather than bright. Its small-scale surface detail gives the cloth a quiet movement across the width, while the linen weave adds a natural, slightly crisp texture. At approximately 139cm wide, it is a versatile fabric for both drapery and upholstery applications where a refined, softly coloured finish is wanted.

How to use it

Use Old Pink with chalky neutrals, pale oak and brushed brass for a calm, tailored scheme. It is especially pretty on a classic armchair, Roman blind or relaxed curtain where the understated pink can glow in daylight.

A gentle blush linen that feels easy and refined in layered interiors.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Hector Old Pink 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.
