Ecru is the colour of unbleached linen.[1]
Traditionally ecru was considered a shade of beige,[2] but beginning in the 19th century it became more precisely defined as "a grayish yellow that is greener and paler than chamois or old ivory".[3] Ecru comes from the French word écru, which means "unbleached".
