About this fabric

Woven in 100% linen, Selma Glacier has a natural, slightly irregular texture that reads as refined rather than rustic. The swatch shows a very pale glacier grey with a cool undertone and a soft chalky finish, lifted by the tiny nubbly weave across the surface. With a repeat of V 0cm / H 0cm approx and a width of 140cm approx, it is a straightforward, versatile plain for both upholstery and drapery. The overall effect is clean and understated, with enough texture to add interest while staying neutral.

How to use it

Use this shade to lighten compact seating, relaxed slipcovers or Roman blinds where its cool grey tone can keep a room feeling fresh. It pairs especially well with bleached woods, white walls and deeper blue-grey accents.

A crisp pale grey linen that works beautifully on tailored upholstery or airy curtains.

Pairs well with

Selma Glacier 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.
