08 Opal
Iona Fabric08
Iona 08 Opal has a quiet, pale ivory tone that shifts softly between warm white and silvery grey across the folds. Its fine woven surface catches the light without becoming glossy.

About this fabric
The close weave is visibly formed from delicate horizontal lines, giving the cloth a restrained textural character rather than a printed pattern. In this Opal colourway, the near-white ground is softened by cool grey inflections that add depth to the surface. The fabric falls in fluid folds, making it particularly convincing for light drapery and calm, tonal interiors. No performance features are noted in the supplied catalogue, so its appeal rests on this subtle weave, gentle movement and refined colour.
How to use it
Use 08 Opal at windows where its soft ivory tone can brighten a room without the starkness of pure white. Pair it with chalk, pale grey and bleached timber for a cool, quietly layered scheme.
A pale opal shade with a fine woven surface and gentle sheen, well suited to understated curtains and soft window treatments.
Pairs well with
08 Opal 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.
