About this fabric

This Linwood carpet from Cormar has a dense, small-scale looped surface that creates fine pebbling and subtle tonal variation across the pale greige ground. The colour sits between warm grey and natural linen, with darker flecks catching between the raised loops. As an Easy Clean category carpet, it offers a practical specification alongside its tactile appearance. The close texture gives the colour a quietly grounded look, without a graphic motif or strong directional pattern.

How to use it

Use Irish Linen to soften a room built around chalky whites, pale oak and warm stone, or pair it with muted taupe upholstery for a layered tonal scheme. Its warm greige cast is especially useful where a cool grey would feel too stark.

Use this softly flecked greige on upholstery where its dense, tactile surface can add quiet texture to a neutral scheme.

Pairs well with

Irish Linen 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.
