About this fabric

Woven in 100% linen, Jenson Linen in Bude Cream has a relaxed, dry hand and a tidy cloth structure that suits refined interiors. The shade is a muted warm cream with a beige cast, so it feels softer than a stark ivory and less yellow than a traditional biscuit tone. Its plain appearance is lifted by the visible linen texture and the slight tonal variation across the weave, which gives the surface depth without introducing pattern. With a width of approximately 145cm and a vertical repeat of 0cm / horizontal repeat of approximately 5cm, it is a practical choice for tailored furnishings and measured decorative schemes. The care code Q 8 + T 3 and √BM fire code add useful specification detail for specifying this fabric confidently.

How to use it

Use Bude Cream for loose covers, smart cushions or lined curtains where you want a quiet, forgiving neutral that won’t fight with other textures. Its warm cream tone works especially well with oak, putty, stone and muted sage.

A quietly elegant neutral that layers easily with timber, stone and deeper accent colours.

Bude 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.
