About this fabric

This Warwick fabric has a quiet linen-like appearance, with pale ivory threads and slightly deeper beige-grey flecks giving the surface gentle depth. The fine weave is clearly visible where the swatch catches the light, while the folded areas show how the tone shifts from warm cream to soft neutral shadow. Catalogued as Fabric, with no performance features noted, it has the visual weight of a versatile mid-weight textile suited to both upholstery and drapery applications.

How to use it

Use the warm ivory tone on relaxed seating, cushions or softly gathered curtains where its fine woven texture can be seen up close. Pair it with chalky neutrals, pale timber and muted stone shades to preserve the swatch’s calm, natural character.

Use this softly warm ivory weave to bring a quiet, natural texture to upholstery, cushions or relaxed window treatments.

Pairs well with

Obscura Linen 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.
