Highlander Fern is a muted olive-green woven fabric with a softly mottled surface and subtle vertical texture. Its earthy yellow-green cast gives the colour a gently weathered, natural depth.

About this fabric

The close-up shows a plain textile with a fine, lightly irregular weave rather than a printed motif, allowing the olive tone to remain the focus. Highlander Fern has a 290 gsm weight and a 140 cm usable width, making it a practical mid-weight for both upholstery and drapery. The colour shifts gently between mossy green and muted khaki as the woven surface catches the light. With a 0 cm vertical and horizontal pattern repeat, it can be cut without matching a design.

How to use it

Use Highlander Fern to bring a softened, earthy green to an occasional chair, headboard or relaxed curtain scheme. Pair its khaki-olive tone with warm timber, natural stone, oatmeal textiles and aged brass.

The muted olive tone and fine woven texture suit relaxed upholstery, cushions, curtains and blinds.

Pairs well with

Highlander Fern 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.
