Rue Linen Dusty Pink

Rue Linen FabricSAF0347-29

Rue Linen Dusty Pink is a quietly muted pink linen with a softly weathered, chalky look. The plain weave and gentle slub give the surface a natural, tactile character.

About this fabric

This Sanderson fabric has a usable width of 139 cm, a standard length of 40 m, and no pattern repeat, making it easy to plan for tailored upholstery or relaxed drapery. At 241 gsm and 84 threads/cm, it sits in a versatile mid-weight range with enough substance for soft furnishing projects. The colour is a dusty mauve pink, reading more muted and sophisticated than sugary, with a greyed undertone that keeps it calm. Its linen texture catches the light subtly across the surface, adding depth without any visible motif.

How to use it

This soft, greyed pink works beautifully on an occasional chair, headboard or simple curtain panels where you want warmth without brightness. Pair it with warm neutrals, pale timber and aged metal finishes to keep the room gentle and refined.

Use with pale oak, chalky neutrals or brushed brass for a soft, lived-in scheme.

Pairs well with

Rue Linen Dusty Pink 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.
