Lysander Ivory

Name: Lysander Ivory

Lysander Ivory pairs a soft ivory ground with a warm gold embroidered motif that reads light, elegant and quietly opulent. The large repeating lattice gives the sheer a formal presence without feeling heavy.

About this fabric

Woven in 55% viscose and 45% linen, this 127cm-wide fabric has the airy look of a sheer with enough substance to show the embroidered design clearly. The ivory base is gently textured and slightly slubby, while the scrolling motif and outlined diamond forms are worked in a warm champagne-gold thread. Its V 60cm / H 43cm approximate repeat creates a generous pattern that feels architectural rather than delicate. With no performance features noted, it is best treated as a decorative furnishing fabric for settings where the embroidery and soft cream tone can be seen at their best.

How to use it

This ivory-and-gold colourway is especially good for layered curtains, where daylight will soften the embroidery and keep the pattern luminous. It also works well in a pale, tonal room scheme with warm woods, aged brass and textured linens.

Use for elegant curtains where the warm embroidery adds a refined, light-catching finish.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Lysander Ivory 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.
