Ellen Ivory

Tilbury FabricF4921-01

Ellen Ivory from the Tilbury collection has a clean, pale ground with a lightly scattered small-scale floral motif. The overall effect is soft and airy, with the pattern sitting quietly into the cloth rather than standing out sharply.

About this fabric

This fabric is woven in 70% linen and 30% cotton, giving the surface a natural, lightly textured look that suits the gentle irregularity visible in the swatch. The repeat measures approximately 11cm vertically by 9cm horizontally, which reads as a delicate, evenly spaced motif across the ivory base. Ellen Ivory has a restrained, warm-white tone with just enough tonal contrast to keep the pattern visible without disturbing the calm overall finish. At 135cm wide, it is a practical furnishing cloth for tailored interior schemes, and the listed Q 8 + T 3 care code and Z fire code should be checked against the intended application.

How to use it

Use this soft ivory colourway to brighten a bedroom, sitting room, or dining chair upholstery without introducing a stark white note. It works especially well with pale timber, chalky painted finishes, and layered neutrals where the subtle motif can be appreciated up close.

A fresh ivory ground with a quietly decorative repeat that feels refined without looking severe.

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