Oliver Ivory
Hector FabricF4961-01
Oliver Ivory is a quiet, light-reflective linen with a soft ivory cream tone and a barely-there woven texture. Its surface reads clean and calm, with just enough grain to keep the colour from feeling flat.

About this fabric
This colourway in the Hector collection has a warm, chalky ivory appearance that sits between cream and pale linen, giving the cloth a gentle softness rather than a stark white look. The weave is fine and even, with a subtle diagonal movement visible across the surface, and the overall effect is understated and tailored. It is made from 100% linen and comes at approximately 144cm wide, with a small horizontal repeat of about 4cm and no vertical repeat, so the design stays calm and uninterrupted. The Q 8 + T 3 care code and √BM fire code make it straightforward to specify for interiors where a natural-looking fabric is wanted.
How to use it
Use Oliver Ivory to soften darker timber, aged brass and stone-toned palettes, where its warm ivory cast will lift the room without looking stark. It is especially effective on relaxed upholstery or simple curtains when you want a quiet, elegant backdrop.
A refined ivory linen that works beautifully across relaxed upholstery and light curtains.

Pairs well with
Oliver Ivory 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.
