Theo Linen in this colourway reads as a quiet oatmeal cream with a fine, disciplined herringbone-style surface. The tiny zigzag weave gives the swatch a softly tailored look without adding visual weight.

About this fabric

Woven from 60% recycled wool, 15% polyester, 10% polyamide, 10% wool and 5% other fibres, Theo Linen has the reassuring body of a practical decorative fabric. The repeat is a very small vertical 0cm by horizontal 1cm approx, which keeps the chevron effect understated and close in scale. In this pale cream colourway, the pattern sits just a shade darker than the ground, so the surface looks tonal rather than contrasty. At 146cm approx wide and finished with fire code √BH, it feels like a versatile choice for schemes that want a natural, lightly textured neutral.

How to use it

Use this oatmeal tone to soften a sofa, occasional chair or bench without stealing attention from timber or stone finishes. It also works well at the window where the small-scale pattern gives interest while staying calm and easy to layer with linen whites and warm neutrals.

A softly tailored neutral that suits both relaxed upholstery and light 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.
