Lucerne Ivory

Lucerne Ivory is a pale, whisper-soft silk with a smooth, luminous surface that reads as warm ivory rather than stark white. The colour feels calm and restrained, with just enough depth to avoid looking flat.

About this fabric

Woven in 100% silk and measuring approximately 138cm wide, Lucerne Ivory has a clean, even appearance with no visible repeat, allowing the cloth itself to take centre stage. The swatch shows a very light ivory cream that sits between white and cream, with a gentle warmth that softens in the light. Its surface has the subtle sheen expected of silk, giving the colour a quiet glow rather than a glossy shine. The Q 8 + T 3 care code and √BM fire code make it a considered choice for interior use where a polished, understated finish is wanted.

How to use it

This ivory tone works beautifully for full-length curtains, lining a room with a soft, diffuse light that feels serene and polished. Pair it with pale timbers, stone, or deeper neutral upholstery to keep the palette layered rather than stark.

Use for quiet, light-reflective curtains or elegant soft furnishings.

Lucerne Ivory 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.
