Orta Fabric

Orta Linen has a pale, softly greened greige tone that reads as calm and natural in the close-up swatch. Its fine, pebbled plain weave brings gentle surface variation without introducing a visible pattern.

About this fabric

The colour sits between light linen, warm grey and a muted sage, with a subtly mottled appearance created by the small woven texture. This is a close, tactile plain weave rather than a smooth flat cloth, giving the pale shade a little depth as the light catches the yarns. Made from 43% linen, 51% viscose and 6% polyester, it is specified for curtains and fixed upholstery. The fabric is approximately 137cm wide, with Contract and General Domestic upholstery grading, and should be dry cleaned.

How to use it

Use this pale greige-sage colourway for softly tailored curtains or relaxed fixed upholstery, especially alongside chalky whites, pale oak and understated stone shades. Its quiet texture adds interest while keeping a room light and visually calm.

A softly textured pale greige weave with a gentle sage cast, suited to relaxed curtains and fixed upholstery.

Pairs well with

Orta Linen 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.
