A lighter option in the Laura Ashley Austen range, this off white furnishing fabric is woven from 54% linen and 46% cotton for a composed, structured feel with a slightly softer touch than pure linen. At 270–290gsm, it has the weight needed for interiors, holding its shape well while offering a smooth, refined surface.
The off white shade brings a clean, understated look that works beautifully in both traditional and modern settings. With no stretch and a dependable woven construction, it’s ideal for curtains, Roman blinds, cushions and occasional upholstery where you want a timeless, tailored finish.

Please read - important tips on washing fabric, shrinkage and colour representation.
Please allow 2-10% shrinkage on fabrics to be on the safe side. Wash before making up in the same manner as you would with subsequent washes (including drying methods)
Please test a sample area first to find the most suitable way to wash your chosen fabrics, as we cannot accept liability for fabrics washed or treated incorrectly.
Whilst every effort is made, we cannot guarantee that the colours you see on your screen are accurate because every screen shows colours differently.
