Kellen Ivory is a soft, near-neutral ivory with a gently mottled surface that keeps the plain weave from feeling flat. In this swatch it reads warm and creamy rather than stark white.

About this fabric

This colourway shows a pale ivory ground with a subtle linen-rich texture and a soft, matte finish that diffuses the light. The plain design has no repeat, making it an easy choice for larger pieces where a calm surface is needed. Woven in 40% Linen, 30% Viscose, 20% Wool and 10% Polyester, it has the balance of natural texture and stability expected of a practical furnishing cloth. The 143cm approximate width and Q 8 + T 3 care code make it straightforward to specify for made-to-measure projects, while the √CH fire code supports contract-minded schemes.

How to use it

Use this ivory in rooms that need brightness without crisp contrast; it sits comfortably with pale timber, plaster pinks and chalky stone. Its gentle warmth is particularly flattering on sofas, headboards and relaxed curtains in light-filled interiors.

A quiet ivory that works beautifully across clean-lined upholstery and softly tailored curtains.

Pairs well with

Kellen Ivory 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.
