Leni Craie

About this fabric
This colourway shows a soft white tone with the slightest warm-grey cast, so it feels fresher than cream but less stark than optic white. The weave appears closely constructed and even, with the subtle texture visible across the surface giving it a neat, practical appearance. It is made from 100% polypropylene and has no repeat, which suits an uncomplicated plain like this one. At approximately 158cm wide, Leni Craie is versatile for covering larger upholstery pieces or for simple, tailored soft furnishings. The C 8 + W 3 care code and fire code Z add to its suitability for everyday interior use.
How to use it
Use Leni Craie where you want a room to feel brighter without introducing a cool blue-white note. It works especially well with pale oak, stone, and darker contrast piping or trim.
A crisp pale neutral that brightens seating or softens a room with quietly tailored ease.

Pairs well with
Leni Craie 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.
