Danube Plain Linen

Name: Danube Plain Linen
Brand: Linwood

Danube Plain Linen has a pale greige tone that shifts gently between warm ivory and cool stone across the swatch. Its fine, visible linen weave gives the plain surface quiet texture without introducing a motif.

About this fabric

Made from 100% linen and supplied at approximately 137cm wide, Danube Plain Linen is specified for curtains. The pale greige colour reads softly neutral, with the diagonal light across the swatch revealing subtle changes from creamy brightness to muted grey-beige depth. A fine crosswoven texture keeps the plain face natural and tactile, while the light cloth has the fluid, easy character expected of a drapery linen. After-care is dry clean.

How to use it

Use this pale greige colourway for full-length curtains where its gentle shift between ivory and stone can soften a room without becoming stark white. It pairs naturally with warm timber, chalky walls and quietly textured upholstery.

A softly shaded pale greige linen for calm, light-filtering curtains with a naturally relaxed finish.

Danube Plain Linen 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.
