Misc Velvet

Roma Olive is a richly shaded olive velvet with a visibly irregular surface. Its short, textured pile creates fine vertical movement, giving the colour depth rather than a flat block of green.

About this fabric

The fabric is catalogued as a velvet and reads as a substantial upholstery textile in this close-up view. Its olive tone sits between moss and khaki, with darker and lighter threads creating a naturally mottled appearance. Vertical nap marks run through the surface, while the pile catches the light in soft, uneven bands. This tonal variation gives Roma Olive a grounded, tactile character with a quietly luxurious finish.

How to use it

Use Roma Olive on a statement armchair, sofa or headboard where its muted olive tone can anchor warm timber, aged brass and earthy neutrals. The shifting nap will add depth to simple, tailored upholstery.

Use this deep olive velvet to bring layered texture and a quietly dramatic finish 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.
