Lucerne Leaf

Lucerne Silks FabricF3931-33

Lucerne Leaf is a softly lit yellow silk with a calm, almost linen-like clarity in the surface. The colour reads as a pale leaf tone rather than a bright citrus, giving it a fresh but restrained presence.

About this fabric

Woven in 100% silk, this fabric has a smooth, lightly reflective finish that catches the light without becoming shiny. The swatch shows an even, plain ground with no visible repeat, matching the supplied repeat of V 0cm / H 0cm approx. At 138cm approx. wide, it is well suited to elegant curtains, blinds and decorative soft furnishings where the colour can glow gently. The leaf-yellow shade feels muted and natural, with enough warmth to soften a room while remaining crisp and tailored.

How to use it

Use this colourway to brighten north-facing rooms, pairing it with pale oak, parchment whites and antique brass. Its calm yellow tone also works beautifully as a lift against deeper greens or muted blues.

A gentle botanical yellow that brings quiet light to tailored interiors.

Pairs well with

Lucerne Leaf 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.
