About this fabric

Catalogued as a fabric from Kirkby Design’s Burst collection, Charm Flax presents a quiet, small-scale pattern of broken, pebble-like marks across a pale beige ground. The cream flecks soften the design, while the slightly deeper taupe areas give the surface subtle depth without making it feel busy. Its visible woven texture has enough body to read as versatile for both upholstery and drapery. With no performance features supplied, its strongest character is the relaxed, natural tonal variation visible across the cloth.

How to use it

Use Charm Flax to lighten a warm neutral sofa, occasional chair or upholstered headboard, pairing its flax-beige tone with ivory, oat and pale timber. It would also make softly textured curtains where the small mottling can add interest without dominating the room.

Its pale flax-beige ground and softly irregular texture bring understated warmth to upholstery, cushions or relaxed window treatments.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Charm Flax 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.
