Marietta Nutmeg

Marietta FabricLF2441C

Marietta Nutmeg is a warm, earthy brown linen with the softly varied surface and fine woven texture visible across the swatch. Its muted nutmeg tone has a gentle red-brown warmth rather than a flat, cool brown appearance.

About this fabric

Woven in 100% linen, this plain colourway combines a cinnamon-brown depth with lighter tan threads that subtly break up the surface. The close weave is fine and lightly textured, giving the fabric a natural, quietly tactile character without a printed motif. At approximately 137cm wide, it is supplied for curtains and cushions. Marietta Nutmeg should be dry cleaned.

How to use it

Use the warm nutmeg shade to ground cream, oatmeal and pale wood interiors, or pair it with deeper chocolate and rust accents for a richer, enveloping scheme. It works equally well as softly gathered curtains or as relaxed cushion covers.

Use this warm nutmeg linen to bring earthy depth to relaxed curtains, cushions and layered neutral schemes.

Marietta Nutmeg 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.
