Elba Pewter is a cool, smoky grey linen with a subtle blue-green cast. The close plain weave catches the light softly across the fabric’s gentle folds, shifting from misty pewter to deeper charcoal.

About this fabric

Woven from 100% linen, Elba Pewter has a fine, even plain texture rather than a printed motif. Its restrained pewter shade reads cool and atmospheric, with darker charcoal passages appearing where the cloth turns away from the light. At approximately 137cm wide, it is specified for curtains and general domestic fixed upholstery. Allow 3% shrinkage, with after-care by delicate wash at 30C or dry cleaning.

How to use it

Pair this cool pewter grey with chalky whites, weathered timber and blue-green accents for a calm, quietly tailored scheme. It works equally well as softly falling curtains or as a darker neutral on fixed upholstery.

Use the cool pewter tone to bring understated depth to curtains, dining seats or tailored fixed upholstery.

Pairs well with

Elba Pewter 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.
