About this fabric

This Nova fabric from Larsen is 100% linen, with an impressive 314cm approx width and a simple repeat of V 0cm / H 0cm approx, making it especially useful for broad drapery drops. In this colourway, the linen appears softly chalked and lightly weathered, with a pale clay-beige ground that picks up the light rather than reflecting it sharply. The fine horizontal slubbing and subtle ribbed surface give the cloth a gentle, textile-led character that feels calm rather than crisp. With no performance features noted and care code Q 8 + T 3, it keeps its appeal rooted in natural texture and an understated finish.

How to use it

Use Salsa Clay for full-height curtains, sheers or relaxed Roman blinds where its warm neutral cast can soften daylight. It pairs especially well with oak, limestone, taupe upholstery and other muted, natural finishes.

A breezy linen with a quietly textured chalky tone that softens light beautifully.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Salsa Clay without fighting it. 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.
