Tresser Ecru presents an almost-white ecru ground with a soft warm cast rather than a stark, blue white. A narrow raised, braided-looking band crosses the cloth diagonally, giving the otherwise fine surface its defining detail.

About this fabric

The ground is a pale creamy ecru, with subtle warmth that becomes more apparent beside the brighter white areas of the photograph. The diagonal band combines a lightly open woven centre with a textured, looped edge, creating a restrained linear accent. A close view shows a fine, even cloth texture across the main ground, while the raised band adds gentle relief and depth. No performance features or further specification data are noted for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Use this warm pale ecru for softly tailored curtains where the diagonal raised band can introduce detail without adding strong colour. It will sit comfortably with natural timber, ivory upholstery and muted stone tones.

Pair the warm pale ecru with natural timber and softly coloured walls for light, understated drapery.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Tresser Ecru without fighting it. 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.
