About this fabric

This woven fabric combines 40% viscose, 38% cotton, 16% linen and 6% polyester, giving the surface a dry-lustrous look with a subtle natural handle. The repeat is approximately V 3cm / H 3cm, and the tiny geometric structure is visible across the cloth as a regular, textural grid. In this olive colourway, the tone sits between green and khaki, with a muted, earthbound depth rather than a bright leaf shade. At 138cm wide, it is a versatile cloth for furnishings where a smart, quietly patterned finish is needed.

How to use it

Use Finmere Olive on an armchair, banquette or cushions where the muted green can warm wood, brass and tan leather. It also works beautifully at the window, where the olive tone feels calm and grounded rather than too vivid.

A refined small-scale weave that adds warmth without overpowering a room.

Pairs well with

Finmere 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.
