Alvar 2 FabricCCF0370-77

Alvar Leaf is a plain olive-green fabric with a softly mottled surface and a quiet, earthy depth. Its muted, slightly mossy tone reads calm rather than bright, allowing the subtle texture to do the work.

About this fabric

The colour sits between olive and moss green, with gentle tonal variation visible across the surface rather than a sharp pattern. A fine, softly brushed-looking texture gives the cloth a mellow appearance as the light moves over it. With a 300gsm weight and 144cm usable width, Alvar Leaf is a versatile mid-weight textile for both upholstery and drapery. The vertical and horizontal pattern repeats are both 0cm, confirming its plain, uninterrupted design.

How to use it

Pair this subdued olive green with warm woods, natural linens and aged brass for an earthy room scheme. It also brings depth to curtains, occasional chairs or cushions without introducing a visible motif.

Use this muted olive green to bring calm, earthy colour to upholstery, curtains or cushions.

Pairs well with

Alvar Leaf 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.
