About this fabric

Woven in a 45% cotton, 25% linen, 21% viscose and 9% polyester blend, Georgia Sheer has the softened handle and subtle slub character expected of a decorative sheer. The design repeats in a vertical 24cm and horizontal 22cm approx pattern, creating a gently interlocking trail that reads clearly through the fabric’s open ground. In this Old Blue colourway, the embroidery appears as a muted blue-grey, with a little depth in the leaf clusters and a lighter outline that keeps the pattern fresh rather than heavy. At 136cm approx wide, it is well suited to full-length curtains where the motif can fall in elegant columns and the light can pass through the weave. Care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code Z are supplied for reference.

How to use it

Use this soft old blue sheer at tall windows with painted woodwork, pale oak, or chalky neutrals to keep the room feeling light. It also works beautifully layered under heavier drapery, where the vine pattern adds interest without closing down the view.

A fresh old blue ground with graceful vine embroidery that feels tailored yet airy.

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.
