About this fabric

Made from 100% linen, Elba Maize is supplied at approximately 137cm wide and is suitable for curtains and fixed upholstery. Its fine plain weave reads as natural and tactile, while the golden maize shade gives the cloth a grounded, sun-warmed depth. Rated for general domestic upholstery, it can be used on fixed seating as well as window treatments. Care is by delicate wash at 30C or dry cleaning, with a stated allowance for 3% shrinkage.

How to use it

Use Elba Maize to bring warmth to a neutral room through full curtains, a window seat or fixed dining upholstery. Pair its earthy golden tone with chalky creams, olive greens, walnut timber and aged brass.

The warm maize-gold tone brings an earthy glow to curtains, dining seats and tailored fixed upholstery.

Pairs well with

Elba Maize 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.
