Faroe Eggshell is a quiet, light cream textile with a fine herringbone structure. Its closely spaced zigzag weave gives the surface a softly tactile, gently variegated finish rather than a flat plain.

About this fabric

The eggshell ground reads as a warm, pale neutral, with delicate beige variation visible between the small woven chevrons. This subtle herringbone texture adds definition while keeping the colourway light and restrained. Woven from 16% linen, 18% viscose, 20% cotton, 40% wool and 6% polyester, it has a naturally mixed fibre character. At approximately 137cm wide, it is specified for curtains and fixed upholstery, with Contract and General Domestic grading and dry-clean care.

How to use it

Use Faroe Eggshell to bring a softly tailored finish to full-length curtains, where its pale cream tone will keep the room bright without looking stark. It also suits fixed upholstery on seating that calls for a quiet, finely textured neutral.

Use this softly textured cream herringbone for tailored curtains or calm, understated upholstery.

Pairs well with

Faroe Eggshell 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.
