About this fabric

Woven from 100% linen, this 140 cm (55") fabric has a fine, lightly striated texture rather than a printed motif. The soft blue colour reads muted and airy, with the weave catching the light in slightly paler and deeper threads across the surface. It is suitable for curtains, loose upholstery, fixed upholstery and bedspreads, with a 35,000 Martindale rub test. Care instructions specify professional dry cleaning only; do not wash, bleach or iron.

How to use it

Use this cool, pale blue on relaxed upholstery or full-length curtains where its natural slub can soften a room without adding a strong pattern. It works especially well with chalky whites, warm timber and other quiet blue-grey tones.

A cool, softly textured linen suited to relaxed upholstery, curtains, bedspreads and layered blue schemes.

Pairs well with

Stanton 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.
