About this fabric

Woven in 100% silk and measuring approximately 137cm wide, this Lucerne Silks colourway has a fine, fluid handle that reads best in drapery and other light decorative applications. The cloth shows a pale old pink shade with warm beige undertones, so the colour feels muted rather than sugary, and the subtle slub gives the surface a gentle natural texture. With a repeat of V 0cm / H 0cm approx., it presents as a plain silk, allowing the sheen and fibre movement to do the visual work. The finish sits comfortably between soft blush and antique rose, catching light in a restrained, elegant way.

How to use it

Use it for tailored curtains, Roman blinds or a smart bedroom scheme where the warm pink tone can soften stone, linen and pale timber. It also works beautifully as an accent against deeper terracotta, tobacco or bronze finishes.

A refined silk for elegant curtains or light decorative upholstery.

Pairs well with

Ceres Old Pink 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.
