Cabris Olive

Cabris II FabricM4018-36

Cabris Olive is a softly mottled olive linen with a dry, natural-looking surface and a calm, earthy depth. The colour reads muted and understated, with enough warmth to keep it from feeling stark or grassy.

About this fabric

Woven in 100% linen, Cabris Olive has the relaxed, lightly slubbed look you expect from a natural fibre cloth, with a subtle grid of weave visible across the surface. The colourway sits in a muted mossy olive, bringing a grounded, slightly weathered tone rather than a bright green note. At approx. 132cm wide and with a vertical and horizontal repeat of 0cm, it lends itself to straightforward cutting and a clean, uninterrupted finish. The fabric is marked Q 8 + T 3 and carries fire code √BH.

How to use it

Use Cabris Olive to soften oak, walnut or painted timber, where its subdued green-brown cast will add depth without overpowering the room. It works especially well with warm neutrals, aged brass and layered natural textures.

A quietly earthy olive linen that works beautifully on simple upholstery or soft drapery.

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.
