Fortywinks Straw is a warm straw-beige textile with a fine, closely woven surface and a gentle fluidity visible in its gathered folds. Its understated crosshatch texture gives the plain colour subtle depth rather than a flat finish.

About this fabric

The colour sits between straw, sand and muted taupe, with warm depth that becomes more shaded through the folds. A fine crosshatched weave is clearly visible across the surface, while the softly collapsing cloth suggests a light, fluid handle suited to drapery. Small changes in light pick out the woven threads without creating a strong sheen or pronounced pattern. No composition, width or performance figures are supplied for this colourway, so the assessment here is based on the visible cloth.

How to use it

Use Fortywinks Straw for full-length curtains where its warm beige tone can soften timber, stone and layered neutrals. Pair it with deeper taupe or muted olive accents to bring out the colour’s earthy depth without losing its relaxed character.

Use this warm straw-beige cloth for softly draped curtains and relaxed, tonal interiors.

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.
