Hackney Fabric

Hackney Porcelain is a very pale, porcelain-white woven fabric with barely visible vertical striations across its surface. Its cool, airy tone reads as softer than stark white while retaining a clean, quiet appearance.

About this fabric

The close-up shows an essentially plain construction, enlivened by fine tonal lines and a restrained woven texture rather than a printed motif. Light catches the surface gently, creating slight shifts between white and soft ivory without introducing a strong contrast. The fabric is catalogued as a textile suitable for consideration across upholstery and drapery based on its visible woven, mid-weight appearance. No further composition or performance specifications are supplied for this colourway.

How to use it

Use Hackney Porcelain to brighten a calm, neutral room where its cool white tone can sit alongside pale timber, chalky painted surfaces and muted grey upholstery. Its subtle striation adds just enough surface interest for curtains, occasional seating or a relaxed layered scheme.

A quiet porcelain-white weave that brings lightness and a clean, understated finish to upholstery or curtains.

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.
