The colour
Like all our plain linens, Harry’s yarn dyed. This means the threads are dyed before they’re woven, for a greater depth of colour. It comes in five natural shades – this one’s Sand, a warm beige that grounds neutral rooms or can be used as a base for brighter colours.
Where we see it
As Harry’s one of our more hardwearing linens, it’s good for sofas and chairs that get used all the time, and its relaxed look suits laidback rooms. The natural flecks make a good partner for other organic fabrics, such as wool and tweed.
The textile
100% linen. Harry’s made of fine yarns, tightly woven together, so it’s both soft and strong. It’ll feel cool in summer and warm in winter, so you can use it all year round.
A note on slubs
Joining these fibres together creates raised parts in the thread, known as slubs. They’re not flaws, just part of the fabric’s character.
How it looks
Harry’s smooth, with a slight sheen. It’s got the gently crumpled look that comes with pure linen.
How it feels
There’s some weight to Harry, but it’s made of fine yarns, so it’s softer and lighter than a textured linen like Finian.

Need to know
- Due to the organic flax fibres, there will be variations in colour and white, raised slubs will occur as part of this natural, artisanally made fabric.
- Subtle creases will appear over time.
- To meet fire retardant upholstery regulations, use with a schedule three interliner – this can be found in most fabric shops.
- Some light will seep through the fine fabric, so we suggest using with a black-out layer for curtains.
