Chimera Linen has a pale oatmeal-beige ground with a close, tactile weave that reads softly rather than starkly. Faint broken shapes and tonal shifts move across the surface, giving the swatch quiet visual depth.

About this fabric

The fabric’s fine woven texture combines creamy beige and slightly deeper taupe flecks, creating a gently mottled appearance. Subtle irregular angular forms are visible within the ground, but their low contrast keeps the overall effect calm and understated. Its even, mid-weight-looking surface makes it suitable to consider for both upholstery and drapery. No performance features or further technical specifications are supplied for this fabric.

How to use it

Use this warm, pale oatmeal colourway to soften timber, chalky plaster and natural stone, or introduce it as relaxed upholstery against deeper taupe and olive accents. Its quiet tonal pattern also works well on full-length curtains where the weave can be seen up close.

A softly textured oatmeal weave with understated tonal movement for calm upholstery, cushions or curtains.

Pairs well with

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