About this fabric

The close, plain weave is visible as delicate horizontal and vertical lines, giving the otherwise solid colour a gently tactile surface rather than a flat finish. This colourway reads as vivid and warm, with a lively yellow cast that gives the chartreuse depth without introducing a motif. At 406gsm, it has the substantial weight expected of a practical upholstery textile, while the 138cm usable width offers generous coverage. Both the vertical and horizontal pattern repeats are 0cm, so the plain surface does not require motif matching.

How to use it

Pair Riva Chartreuse with warm timber, natural fibres and soft neutral upholstery to temper its energetic yellow-green tone. It can also act as a confident accent on a chair or compact sofa against quieter walls.

Use this saturated yellow-green upholstery fabric to bring warm, energetic colour to contemporary seating and occasional chairs.

Pairs well with

Riva Chartreuse 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.
