About this fabric

The woven face is densely textured, with fine yarn definition visible beneath the printed or woven-looking botanical pattern. Each stylised leaf is formed from dark taupe and charcoal lines, then lifted by a chalky pale edge that gives the repeat gentle definition. Against the olive-grey taupe ground, these light accents create depth without making the colourway feel bright or high-contrast. The supplied record notes that no performance features are specified for this fabric.

How to use it

Use this muted olive-taupe colourway on an armchair, bench or window seat where its softly contrasting leaf repeat can be seen at close range. Pair it with chalk, mushroom and weathered wood tones to echo the pale edging and earthy ground.

A grainy woven ground and pale-edged leaf repeat bring quiet botanical character to upholstered seating.

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.
