About this fabric

This Sanderson fabric has a plain, linen-look texture that reads warm and muted rather than bright, with a dusty henna pink cast and gentle slubbing visible across the face. At 241 gsm and 139 cm usable width, it sits comfortably in the mid-weight range and works well where a fabric needs substance without feeling heavy. The cloth has no pattern repeat, so the texture and colour carry the design rather than motif. Its 84 threads per cm gives the surface a reasonably tight, tailored look while still keeping the relaxed character seen in the swatch.

How to use it

The warm rose-brown undertone pairs well with oak, walnut and natural plaster, adding colour without overpowering a room. It is especially effective on relaxed seating, cushions or unlined curtains where the matte linen texture can soften the scheme.

Use it for upholstery or curtains when you want a warm, muted pink with an easy, lived-in feel.

Pairs well with

Rue Linen Henna 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.
