About this fabric

Woven in 100% linen, Oliver Sienna has a natural dry hand and a fine, regular texture that shows clearly across the swatch. The vertical repeat is 0cm and the horizontal repeat is approximately 4cm, creating a subtle chevron effect rather than an overt motif. Its colour sits in a warm sienna beige range, with enough depth to feel richer than a plain neutral while still staying calm and versatile. At approximately 144cm wide, it is a practical fabric for both upholstery and drapery applications where a smart, understated finish is wanted. Care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code √BM are supplied for this exact cloth.

How to use it

Use this warm beige tone on upholstered dining chairs, headboards or relaxed curtains where you want texture to add interest without strong contrast. It pairs especially well with oak, linen-white paintwork and deeper brown accents.

A soft warm neutral that brings subtle texture without overpowering a scheme.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Oliver Sienna without fighting it. 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.
