About this fabric

This Linwood fabric is woven from 100% linen and measures approximately 137cm wide. The colour reads as a muted, earthy khaki softened by olive green, with lighter ridges and deeper shadowed folds revealing the cloth’s natural depth. A closely spaced plain weave creates a fine, lightly tactile surface that remains visually calm. It is suitable for curtains and fixed upholstery for general domestic use; allow 3% shrinkage, with care by delicate wash at 30C or dry cleaning.

How to use it

Pair Elba Khaki with warm timber, aged brass and chalky neutrals for an earthy scheme, or use it against deeper olive and charcoal tones to emphasise its cool, shaded green depth.

Use this softened olive-khaki linen to bring an earthy, quietly layered tone to curtains, blinds or fixed domestic upholstery.

Pairs well with

Elba Khaki 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.
