Petite Ecru

Name: Petite Ecru
Brand: Mark Alexander

Petite Ecru is a very pale, warm-toned textile with an almost ivory ground and a delicate diagonal plume-like motif. Its quiet contrast lets the fine surface texture remain part of the design.

About this fabric

The fabric shows a fine, even weave in soft ecru, with a slender feather-like form sweeping diagonally across the surface. Subtle beige threads define the motif without interrupting the lightness of the ground. The close tonal relationship between motif and background gives this colourway a calm, airy depth rather than a stark white appearance. Its fine-looking cloth and restrained pattern are particularly suited to drapery.

How to use it

Use Petite Ecru for full-length curtains in rooms needing gentle warmth without a strong colour statement. Pair it with chalky whites, pale timber and natural stone to echo its softly beige diagonal detail.

Use this pale ecru ground to bring a quiet, softly textured finish to curtains and relaxed window treatments.

Pairs well with

Petite Ecru 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.
