About this fabric

Woven from 100% linen, this 137 cm (53.82") fabric has a delicate plain weave in a restrained soft blue-grey shade. The close-up shows fine vertical and horizontal threads creating gentle texture rather than a printed motif, while the cool tone remains light and airy across the surface. With a 50,000 Martindale rub test, it is suitable for curtains, loose upholstery, fixed upholstery and bedspreads. Care requires professional dry cleaning only; do not wash, bleach or iron.

How to use it

Use this pale, cool blue-grey on a relaxed armchair, loose cover or upholstered headboard where the linen texture can remain visible. It also makes understated curtains or a bedspread, especially alongside chalky whites, pale timber and muted blue accents.

A cool, softly textured linen with the versatility for relaxed upholstery, curtains and bedspreads.

Pairs well with

Baker House Linen Soft Blue 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.
