Calais Flax

Name: Calais Flax
Brand: Warwick

Calais Flax is a softly woven plain with a natural, flax-toned beige surface. The colour reads warm and understated, with a fine grid-like texture that gives the cloth quiet depth.

About this fabric

This colourway shows a gentle beige base with a faintly melange character, so the surface feels relaxed rather than flat. The close weave gives it a dry, linen-like appearance in the image, which suits the fabric’s intended use for curtaining. Made in 52% Recycled Polyester and 48% Polyester, it offers a practical composition with a wide 300 cm width for generous window dressing. With a plain repeat and no Martindale rub test noted, it is presented here as a curtain fabric rather than an upholstery cloth. The overall effect is soft, warm and easy to coordinate, especially where a natural neutral is wanted without looking stark.

How to use it

Use Calais Flax for full-length curtains, sheers or layered drapes where a warm beige neutral will soften daylight. It pairs well with oak, plaster pinks and chalky whites for a calm, textural scheme.

A calm natural neutral that layers easily with timber, linen and warm whites.

Pairs well with

Calais Flax 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.
