Lux Linen

Lux Linen has a softly luminous pale greige ground, overlaid with a finely repeated chevron weave that creates gentle vertical movement. Its restrained contrast keeps the pattern subtle while allowing the surface texture to show.

About this fabric

The fabric’s fine, closely spaced chevrons form broken vertical lines across the pale linen-toned ground, giving the surface a neat, lightly graphic rhythm. The colour sits between warm ivory and cool stone, with delicate tonal variation where the woven threads catch the light. The image shows a textured woven surface rather than a flat print, making the design read as quietly dimensional. No performance features are noted in the supplied details for this fabric.

How to use it

Pair this pale greige colourway with chalky whites, soft taupes and weathered timber for a calm, layered scheme. Its small-scale chevron texture can add definition to a tailored chair, headboard or full-length curtain without introducing a strong contrast.

Use this pale greige woven design to bring quiet texture and a softly tailored finish to upholstery or curtains.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Lux Linen 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.
