About this fabric

This colourway from the Nura III collection by Manuel Canovas is woven in 100% cotton and comes in an approximate 140cm width, with no visible repeat in either direction. The swatch shows a muted kaki olive shade with a dry, softly brushed-looking texture that keeps the surface calm rather than glossy. The colour has a warm, dusted quality, so it feels more like an adapted neutral than a strong green. With care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code √BM, it is a practical textile for schemes that want an earthy, tailored finish.

How to use it

Use Nura Kaki on a clean-lined sofa, bench or dining chair where the olive tone can read as a sophisticated neutral. It also works well with oak, tan leather and chalky off-whites, especially in rooms that need warmth without brightness.

A versatile earthy neutral that works beautifully across upholstery and soft furnishings.

Pairs well with

Nura Kaki 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.
