About this fabric

This Cosmopolitan fabric is woven from 68% viscose, 19% linen, 7% silk and 6% acrylic, giving the ivory surface a subtly varied textile character visible across the swatch. The fine, closely settled weave reads as smooth and lightly lustrous, with no printed motif or contrasting pattern to interrupt the pale colourway. At 137 cm (53.82") wide, it is specified for curtains, loose upholstery, fixed upholstery and bedspreads. The 18,000 Martindale rub test supports these upholstery applications, while professional dry cleaning is required: do not wash, bleach or iron.

How to use it

Use this warm ivory on an upholstered headboard, occasional chair or relaxed curtain to bring a gentle, light-reflective softness to the room. Its quiet surface also works well where a pale plain is needed without the cooler look of pure white.

A softly luminous warm ivory with a fine woven surface, suitable for curtains, upholstery and bedspreads.

Pairs well with

Kelway Silk Ivory 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.
