Galatzo Olive

Palma Collection FabricGALATZO

Galatzo Olive shows a tightly woven herringbone that reads as a fine, orderly texture from a distance and a crisp zigzag close up. The olive ground is softened with lighter threads, giving the cloth a natural, earthy depth.

About this fabric

Woven in Spain from 85% cotton and 15% linen, this traditional fabric is specified for severe contract upholstery and drapes, with a 45,000 rub test, 140cm width and a substantial 364gsm weight. The small repeat of 1.5cm vertical and 2cm horizontal keeps the herringbone pattern neat and restrained, so the surface feels structured rather than busy. In this colourway, the olive tones are muted and slightly dry rather than bright, with a warm-grey cast that softens the contrast between the yarns. The overall effect is practical and grounded, with enough texture to add interest without overpowering a room.

How to use it

Use it on armchairs, banquettes or benches where the small herringbone will read as tailored from a distance. It also works well for curtains or Roman blinds in rooms that need an understated olive tone with a traditional finish.

A muted olive herringbone that brings quiet texture to tailored upholstery or soft drapes.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Galatzo Olive without fighting it. Mixed across the houses we hold, which is the part a single supplier's book cannot do.

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.
