Olney FabricF4932-10

Bracken Celadon is a quiet, light-reflective colourway with a soft celadon cast and a gently mottled surface. The small woven check reads as tailored and airy rather than bold.

About this fabric

This Olney fabric combines 49% viscose, 35% cotton, 9% linen and 7% polyester, giving the cloth a balanced handle that suits both curtains and upholstery. The weave shows a fine small-scale check with a subtle herringbone-like texture, visible as the light catches the pale green-grey ground. Bracken Celadon sits in a cool, muted celadon range, softened by chalky beige undertones so it feels calm rather than vivid. The repeat is approximately V 1cm / H 4cm, and the width is approximately 138cm. The overall effect is a restrained, textural fabric with enough surface interest to hold its own on larger pieces without overpowering a room.

How to use it

Use this celadon tone to cool down warmer timber and brass schemes, or pair it with ivory and stone for a fresh layered look. Its small-scale pattern works particularly well on armchairs, loose covers and full-length curtains where the weave can be appreciated up close.

A cool, understated green that works neatly on tailored upholstery or relaxed curtains.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Bracken Celadon 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.
