Beachcomber Cape Wrath

Name: Beachcomber Cape Wrath
Brand: Linwood
SKU: LF1518FR

Beachcomber Cape Wrath is a woven plaid in a richly layered mix of ochre, navy, taupe, grey and muted purple. Its balanced checks and visible wool texture give the colourway a cool, weathered depth rather than a bright or high-contrast finish.

About this fabric

Made from 100% wool and approximately 137cm wide, Cape Wrath is specified for curtains and fixed upholstery, with Contract and General Domestic grades. The design is formed from medium-scale checks, with deep navy bands crossing warm ochre and mustard grounds alongside softer taupe, grey and dusky purple lines. The woven surface gives the plaid a tactile, substantial appearance that supports its use on seating as well as window treatments. After-care is dry clean only.

How to use it

Use Cape Wrath on a reading chair, sofa or bench where its ochre ground can warm timber and neutral interiors, while the navy and muted purple checks introduce cooler accents. It also brings a softly tailored, layered look to curtains in a relaxed country or collected room.

A substantial wool check with ochre warmth and cool navy-purple lines, well suited to upholstered seating and relaxed curtains.

Pairs well with

Beachcomber Cape Wrath 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.
