Sirocco Linen

Against the light, Sirocco Linen reads as a misted grey-beige veil, with a fine woven grid that keeps the colour gently dimensional. The restrained surface texture gives this Ventus Sheers colourway a cool, airy character.

About this fabric

The swatch shows a very pale, cool grey with a gentle oatmeal cast, giving the surface a quiet, chalky depth rather than a stark white finish. Its close, tiny-scale weave is clearly visible, with fine horizontal and vertical threads creating a softly irregular linen-like texture. No composition, width, rub test or performance features are supplied for this fabric, so suitability should be confirmed against the intended window treatment.

How to use it

Use this pale grey-beige colourway for relaxed curtains or voile-style panels where its cool, lightly chalked tone can soften daylight without adding visual weight. Pair it with warm white walls, pale oak and muted stone shades to echo the subtle oatmeal undertone.

A fine, softly textured sheer for cool, light-filtering window treatments.

Pairs well with

Sirocco 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.
