Quadretto Olive
Pelham FabricF4022-18
Quadretto Olive is a small-scale checked fabric in soft khaki olive tones, with a finely woven surface that reads quietly tailored. The little grid shifts between earthy green and warm neutral notes, giving the cloth a calm, understated depth.

About this fabric
This colourway of Quadretto has a close, regular check that measures approximately 1cm vertically and horizontally, so the pattern sits neatly rather than shouting. The weave looks crisp and compact in the image, with the olive ground broken by lighter flaxen and dusky brown threads that soften the overall effect. At approximately 138cm wide and woven in 52% viscose, 28% cotton and 20% polyester, it has the feel of a versatile decorative fabric rather than a loose drape. The muted khaki-olive tone gives the cloth a smart, grounded character, and the tiny repeat makes it easy to use across larger pieces without losing its tidy rhythm.
How to use it
Use it on a compact armchair, bench or piping where the small check can be appreciated up close. It would also sit well at the window in a tailored Roman blind or relaxed curtain, especially alongside aged timber and warm off-whites.
A neat small check in muted olive that feels tailored and easy to live with.

Pairs well with
A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Quadretto Olive 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.
