About this fabric

The pale flax background reads warm and chalky, while soft grey stepped lines form an irregular repeating maze across the face. Its close view shows a fine, lightly slubbed woven texture that gives the pattern subtle depth without making the colourway feel bold. The cloth appears to have a versatile medium weight, making it suitable for upholstery or drapery. No composition, width or rub-test figures are supplied for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Use the warm flax tone to soften a room with pale oak, ivory or natural linen, then echo the soft grey maze in a chair, cushion or discreet window treatment. Its low-contrast pattern works especially well where you want geometry without a strong graphic statement.

A warm flax ground and soft grey maze bring quiet geometry to upholstery or curtains.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside 16 Flax without fighting it. 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.
