About this fabric

Woven in 100% linen, this Selma colourway has a dry, natural handle and a subtle irregular texture that reads clearly in the close-up. The 140cm approx width makes it practical for a wide range of interior uses, while the vertical and horizontal repeat of 0cm approx confirms a straightforward all-over weave. Its mauve tone is light and airy rather than saturated, with a cool-lilac cast that softens the surface and keeps the fabric feeling refined. The visible weave adds depth without pattern, so the colour does the styling work here. Care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code √BM are supplied for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Use it on a clean-lined armchair or sofa to bring a gentle wash of colour without overpowering the room. It also suits full-length curtains where the pale mauve tone can catch daylight and feel even softer.

A quiet mauve linen that works beautifully on relaxed seating or softly tailored curtains.

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.
