About this fabric

This colourway reads as a soft, cool-leaning grey with a lightly mottled finish created by the fine horizontal slub. Its restrained texture adds depth without introducing a strong pattern, keeping the overall effect calm and relaxed. The delicate woven appearance is well suited to softly hanging window treatments. No composition, width or rub-test specification has been supplied for this fabric, and no performance features are noted.

How to use it

Pair the pale warm-grey tone with chalky whites, pale oak and softly textured neutrals for an airy window treatment. Its understated surface also works against stronger architectural shapes without competing with them.

Use its pale warm-grey tone and subtle slub texture for understated curtains or blinds.

Milo 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.
