Portland Linen Wavy

SS22 Images - Enchanted Garden, Geometrica, Water Meadow & Portland Fabric

Portland Linen Wavy in Citron shows a soft cream ground crossed by broad, painterly wavy stripes in muted linen and taupe tones. The effect is relaxed and quietly textural, with the pattern reading lighter in the open areas and deeper where the stripe gathers at the fold.

About this fabric

Woven in 100% cotton, this fabric has a usable width of 137cm and a 35cm horizontal pattern repeat, making the stripe movement easy to plan across curtains or statement upholstery. The visible palette is a gentle cream base with earthy beige-brown wavering bands, so the design feels warm rather than stark and brings a natural, sun-washed look to the surface. With a Heavy Domestic upholstery grade and a Martindale rating of 30,000, it is well suited to practical seating as well as accessories and drapery. The cotton weave gives the cloth a crisp, breathable handle, while the repeated line motif adds just enough rhythm without feeling busy. It is treatable for FR drapery and upholstery, which adds versatility for residential schemes.

How to use it

Use this colourway where you want a light, grounded stripe that softens white walls and wood finishes. It works especially well in calm country-inspired rooms, layered with oat, sand and muted olive accents.

A warm, airy stripe that feels calm and effortless on both curtains and upholstery.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Portland Linen Wavy without fighting it. 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.
