Block Check Green

Block Weaves FabricPF50490.735

Block Check Green combines muted olive squares with pale natural checks in a balanced woven grid. The softly irregular surface gives the colourway a calm, organic depth rather than a crisp, high-contrast finish.

About this fabric

The pattern has a 12 cm vertical repeat and an 11.6 cm horizontal repeat, forming medium-scale checks that remain clear without dominating the surface. Olive-green blocks sit alongside warm ivory and oatmeal tones, while the fine crosshatch weave adds subtle variation where the light catches the cloth. Woven from 10% polyester, 52% viscose, 25% cotton and 13% linen, the 140 cm wide fabric has a tactile, natural-looking character. With a 20,000 Martindale rub test, it is specified for curtains, loose upholstery, fixed upholstery and bedspreads; professional dry cleaning is required.

How to use it

Use the softened olive tone on a relaxed armchair, loose cover or upholstered headboard, pairing it with warm wood, chalky walls and natural linens. As curtains or a bedspread, the pale checks help keep the deeper green feeling light and easy.

A softly textured olive check with a natural, gently weathered feel for relaxed upholstery, curtains and bedspreads.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Block Check Green 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.
