Ice Shell

Name: Ice Shell
Brand: Kirkby Design

Ice Shell is a near-white fabric with a gentle ivory cast, closer to warm shell than stark optic white. The swatch appears exceptionally clean and even, with only very subtle tonal variation across its surface.

About this fabric

This colourway reads as a soft, warm cream, giving the plain surface a quieter and more approachable feel than a bright white. Its smooth appearance and fine-looking handle make it best suited to drapery, where the pale tone can retain a light, airy presence. The supplied catalogue records no performance features, and no further composition, width or rub-test data is provided.

How to use it

Use Ice Shell for full-length curtains in rooms that need softened brightness rather than cool white contrast. Pair it with pale oak, chalky stone and warm natural textures to draw out its gentle ivory warmth.

Its softly warm ivory tone brings a clean, light finish to curtains and other softly handled window treatments.

Ice Shell 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.
