About this fabric

Woven in 100% silk, Lucerne White has the smooth, lightly lustrous handle you would expect from a fine decorative silk. The colour sits in a warm off-white range rather than a stark optic white, so it feels mellow and elegant in the cloth. With a repeat of V 0cm / H 0cm approx and a width of 138cm approx, it presents as a simple, uninterrupted surface that lets the tone do the work. The appearance is calm and polished, making it especially suited to schemes that need brightness without a sharp contrast.

How to use it

This pale ivory silk is particularly effective for full-length curtains, where the light can move across its surface and reveal its soft sheen. It also works beautifully in formal rooms alongside stone, chalk, or pale timber finishes.

Use this luminous silk for understated curtains or elegant lining-style upholstery accents.

Pairs well with

Lucerne 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.
