About this fabric

The visible ground is a soft ivory, crossed by slender tobacco-brown stripes that vary subtly in width and waviness rather than forming rigid, engineered lines. Its fine, sheer construction allows the pale ground to catch the light, making the brown markings read as warm and softly diffused. The lightly textured weave adds a delicate grain across the surface without overpowering the open appearance of the cloth. As part of the Ventus Sheers collection, this colourway is particularly suited to fluid window treatments where its vertical rhythm can remain visible against daylight.

How to use it

Hang Ghibli Tobacco at full length in a calm room with warm white, oatmeal and natural timber tones. Its ivory base will keep windows feeling light, while the tobacco stripes can be echoed in woven shades, leather accents or aged brass details.

Use this softly striped sheer to bring warm, filtered light and gentle vertical rhythm to windows.

Pairs well with

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