About this fabric

Woven in 56% Silk and 44% Cotton, Lavelle Dark Cream has a smooth-yet-tactile handle that feels elegant rather than crisp. The cloth is shown in a muted cream tone with subtle beige warmth, and the woven texture creates delicate linear ripples across the surface. With an approximate width of 140cm and a repeat of V 0cm / H 0cm, it presents as a clean, uninterrupted plain with character coming from the weave itself. Its balanced silk-cotton composition gives the colourway a soft glow without obvious shine, making it a versatile choice for tailored schemes.

How to use it

Use this warm dark cream to lift darker timber, upholstered seating, or layered window treatments without introducing a stark white note. It sits especially well with oak, taupe, and soft stone shades, where its gentle warmth can read relaxed and quietly smart.

A softly neutral silk-cotton with a quiet tactile finish that works beautifully across upholstery and drapery.

Pairs well with

Lavelle Dark 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.
