Cortina Linen in Taupe shows a rhythmic column of elongated oval motifs in muted greige and parchment tones. The surface reads softly textured and gently tonal, with the pattern sitting quietly across the cloth.

About this fabric
Woven in a 44% viscose, 39% polyester and 17% cotton blend, Cortina Linen has a balanced handle that suits both upholstery and drapery projects. The 140cm width gives good coverage for larger runs, while the 11.5cm vertical by 8.5cm horizontal repeat creates a steady, structured rhythm across the fabric. In this colourway, the ovals are worked in soft taupe and stone shades over a pale ground, giving the design a calm, slightly weathered look rather than a high-contrast graphic one. The weave has a linen-like texture with a gentle matte finish that keeps the pattern refined and easy to live with. Care code NQT1< should be followed as supplied.
How to use it
Use this taupe version for tailored upholstery, ottomans or Roman blinds where the repeating oval motif can add interest without overpowering a room. Its muted greige palette sits especially well with oak, limestone and warm off-whites.
A calm taupe geometric that layers easily with warm woods, stone and linen textures.

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