About this fabric

This colourway reads as a cool, soft white rather than a stark bright white, with faint linen slubs visible through the sheer cloth. Woven in 63% Linen and 37% Polyester, it has the natural tactility of linen balanced by a smoother, more controlled drape. The 288cm approximate width makes it especially suitable for full-length curtains and wide drops, and the 0cm repeat means the finish stays simple and uninterrupted. Its airy transparency and understated texture suit layered window schemes where daylight needs to be softened rather than blocked.

How to use it

Use this polar white sheer to temper strong sun on tall windows, especially where you want the fabric to disappear into a pale wall scheme. It pairs well with chalk, stone and pale oak finishes for an easy, light-filled room.

A sheer, airy white that softens light beautifully in calm, pared-back interiors.

Pairs well with

Bute Polar White 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.
