Livorno Portland

Name: Livorno Portland
Brand: Linwood

Livorno Portland is a pale ivory-greige plain weave with fine vertical ribbing that becomes especially visible across the folded swatch. Its soft tonal shifts give the light neutral shade more depth than a completely flat plain.

About this fabric

The closely spaced ribs create a delicate linear texture, while the folds move between creamy highlights and muted taupe-grey shadows. Made from 75% linen and 25% cotton, Livorno Portland is approximately 137cm wide. It is rated for Contract and General Domestic use and specified for curtains and fixed upholstery. After-care is dry clean.

How to use it

Use this warm ivory-greige colourway for full-length curtains where its fine rib catches changing daylight, or on fixed upholstery paired with deeper taupe, natural wood and softly aged neutrals. Its restrained texture also suits loose-cover seating without introducing a strong pattern.

A softly ribbed ivory-greige weave that brings gentle texture to curtains, fixed upholstery and loose-cover seating.

Pairs well with

Livorno Portland 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.
