Derwent Eggshell
Plains & Semi Plains Fabric
Derwent Eggshell is a softly washed plain with a cool, sage-leaning grey tone that catches the light across its linen-rich surface. The swatch reads relaxed and natural, with a subtle woven texture that gives the colour gentle depth.

About this fabric
Made from 60% linen and 40% cotton, this plain fabric has the airy, slightly slubby look you expect from a linen blend, but with a smoother, more settled handle. The Eggshell colourway is not a stark white; it sits instead in a muted sage-grey range, with silvery highlights where the folds lift and deeper olive-shadowed areas in the troughs. With a width of 140cm and a pattern repeat of 0cm, it is an uncomplicated cloth that relies on texture and tone rather than motif. It feels easygoing rather than formal, and the visible weave gives it enough character to stand on its own in a room.
How to use it
Use Derwent Eggshell for relaxed curtains, Roman blinds, or slim upholstery pieces where you want a soft neutral with a cool green-grey cast. It pairs especially well with pale oak, chalky whites, and deeper moss or charcoal accents.
A quietly elegant neutral that suits tailored upholstery or simple, light-filtering drapes.

Pairs well with
Derwent Eggshell 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.
