Telltale Mimosa
Sheers FabricSAF0519-01
Telltale Mimosa is a whisper-light sheer in a soft cream ground, with the faintest mimosa tint glimmering through the folds. The cloth reads airy and translucent, with vertical pleats giving the colour a gentle, diffused glow.

About this fabric
This Sanderson fabric is supplied as a 302 cm wide sheer with a standard length of 35 m, a weight of 114 gsm and 30 threads per cm, making it ideal for broad curtain drops and elegant layered window treatments. The visible surface is finely woven and lightly textured, so the cream base does not look flat; instead it catches the light with a soft, almost pearly finish. Across the image, the colour stays very pale and warm, with barely-there yellow-green mimosa notes that show most clearly where the light passes through the folds. The 8.5 cm by 8.5 cm repeat is subtle in this colourway, reading as a restrained decorative rhythm rather than a bold motif.
How to use it
Use Telltale Mimosa where you want daylight to stay bright but slightly softened, especially in rooms with chalky paint, pale timber or linen upholstery. Its warm cream tone sits neatly beside muted greens and soft neutrals, adding a quiet lift without turning yellow.
A sheer, luminous cream that softens daylight and layers beautifully over blinds or as a light curtain.

Pairs well with
Telltale Mimosa 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.
