About this fabric
This colourway reads as a restrained fig-tinged green with an earthy olive cast, lifted by the velvet pile rather than a flat surface. The fabric is a velvet from Cosima Velvet II by Colefax and Fowler, with a width of 140cm approx and no visible repeat, so the plain ground feels calm and continuous. Its 56% viscose and 44% cotton composition helps explain the smooth sheen and soft texture visible in the swatch. The tone sits between sage and olive, making it feel grounded and slightly antique rather than bright or grassy.
How to use it
Use it on an upholstered armchair, banquette or occasional sofa where the colour can read as a quiet statement. It pairs especially well with warm oak, bronze and textured neutrals that let the olive-green depth stay central.
A rich olive velvet that brings depth and warmth to clean-lined seating.

Cosima Fig Green 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.
