About this fabric

Made from 100% linen, this 137cm-wide fabric has a fine, closely woven texture visible across the swatch. The sage-olive colour is softened with grey, giving it a quiet, natural depth rather than a bright green appearance. Elba Sage is specified for curtains and fixed upholstery, with a General Domestic upholstery grade. Allow 3% shrinkage; after-care is Delicate Wash at 30C or Dry Clean.

How to use it

Use Elba Sage for full-length curtains where its softened green-grey tone can sit alongside warm timber, stone and natural linens. It also brings a calm, quietly textured finish to fixed domestic upholstery without introducing a strong pattern.

A softly muted sage-olive linen with a fine woven texture, suited to relaxed curtains and fixed domestic upholstery.

Pairs well with

Elba Sage 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.
