Alto Sheer Chalk/Celestial pairs a chalk-white ground with cool grey-blue vertical motifs, giving the hanging cloth a quietly graphic appearance. Daylight shows through the fine, open-looking surface while the repeated elongated forms retain their definition.

About this fabric

This 134 gsm fabric is suited to drapery, with a generous usable width of 295 cm for tall or wide curtain drops. Narrow vertical columns of elongated diamond and lozenge shapes repeat across the cloth, creating a measured rhythm rather than a broad, dominant pattern. The Chalk/Celestial colourway is notably cool and pale: ivory-white threads sit beside soft grey-blue accents, and the translucency allows the light to gently soften their contrast. Its pattern repeats every 24.5 cm vertically and 7 cm horizontally, keeping the motif closely spaced across a full curtain.

How to use it

Use this cool chalk and grey-blue sheer at a bright window where its vertical geometry can hang uninterrupted and its pale tones can echo blue-grey upholstery, stone or white-painted walls. The 295 cm width also makes it practical for generous gathered curtains without breaking up the repeated columns.

A fine, softly translucent geometric sheer for full-height curtains that keep the room light and calm.

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.
