Made from 25% linen and 75% polyester, Abbey has a softer, more refined finish than a standard polyester sheer, with lovely surface interest and depth from the linen component.
Abbey Off White is ideal for customers who love the look and feel of our premium Barcelona sheer curtain fabric but want a similar style at a more affordable price point.
