About this fabric

Woven in 100% linen, Minack Check Green has a crisp, lightly slubby handle that suits both upholstery and drapery. The check repeats at approximately 3cm vertically and horizontally, creating a tidy miniature grid that reads clearly without feeling busy. Its sage-green lines are softened by a warm off-white ground, giving the colourway a muted, slightly dusty character rather than a bright or grassy one. With a width of approximately 152cm and care code Q 8 + T 3, it offers practical versatility for cushions, loose covers, blinds, and simple curtains. The √CM fire code is also supplied for this fabric.

How to use it

Use it to bring a restrained green note into a kitchen banquette, cottage chair, or Roman blind. It works especially well alongside cream paintwork, aged wood, and other small-scale patterns.

Pair this fresh small check with painted timber, ticking stripes, or simple linen plains for an easy country feel.

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.
