About this fabric

The base reads as a warm, yellowed olive rather than a clear green, giving this colourway a softly aged and earthy character. Irregular rosettes move across the surface in pale silver-grey, mushroom and brown, with darker centres adding depth to the animal-inspired pattern. A fine, close-set weave is visible throughout, lending the design a tactile, substantial appearance suited to upholstery. The catalogue records no performance features for this fabric, so suitability should be confirmed against the intended project requirements.

How to use it

Use this olive and taupe colourway on a statement chair, footstool or occasional sofa where its layered rosettes can provide the room’s main pattern. Pair it with warm timber, aged brass and quiet oatmeal or stone textiles to draw out its softened, natural tones.

A richly patterned olive ground with pale, silvery rosettes for statement upholstery.

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.
