Rue Linen Petrol is a plain woven fabric with a cool petrol-teal character and a softly mottled linen look. The colour reads as deep and calm rather than bright, with the weave giving it a relaxed surface movement.

About this fabric

This colourway has a measured, blue-leaning teal tone that feels richer in the shadows and slightly softened where the light catches the weave. At 241 gsm, with a usable width of 139 cm and no pattern repeat in either direction, it is a practical choice for tailored upholstery or elegant drapery. The texture shows a fine linen character with subtle variations across the surface, so the finish feels natural rather than flat. The depth of the petrol shade gives it enough presence for a statement chair, bench or curtain, while still sitting easily alongside timber, stone and pale neutrals.

How to use it

Use it on a streamlined armchair, headboard or full-length curtains where the blue-green depth can anchor the room. It pairs especially well with oat, chalk and walnut tones for a composed, slightly coastal feel.

Use with warm wood and pale neutrals to let the colour stay crisp and modern.

Rue Linen Petrol 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.
