About this fabric

The supplied catalogue identifies this textile as a Fabric, with no performance features noted. Visually, the surface has a dense, velvety appearance, with darker olive-brown areas settling between warmer golden highlights. Its low-contrast mottling creates depth without introducing a separate motif or visible repeat. The substantial-looking surface makes it best suited to upholstery where its shifting light and richly shaded colour can be appreciated.

How to use it

Use this muted olive-gold colourway on a statement armchair, sofa or upholstered headboard, pairing it with dark timber, aged brass and warm neutral textiles. Its brown undertones also sit comfortably alongside tobacco leather and deeper olive accents.

A richly mottled olive-gold textile with a plush-looking surface that brings depth to upholstered seating and occasional pieces.

Musa Catkin is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. 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.
