Orso Olive is shown here as a deep, muted olive with a dense, even surface and no visible pattern. The tone reads earthy and restrained, with a darker cast that keeps it elegant rather than bright.

About this fabric

This colourway has a rich olive-green depth with brown undertones, giving the cloth a calm, grounded feel in the light. The surface appears smooth and tightly woven rather than lofty or fluffy, which suits its 100% cotton composition and plain repeat. At approximately 138cm wide, it is a practical furnishing width for tailored projects, and the absence of any visible repeat makes the colour the focus. The overall effect is smart and understated, with enough depth to hold interest without shouting for attention.

How to use it

Use Orso Olive on club chairs, benches, or piped cushions where its dark herbal tone can anchor a room. It pairs especially well with natural oak, tobacco leather, and warm neutrals.

A rich, grounded olive that works beautifully on tailored seating and cushions.

Pairs well with

Orso Olive 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.
