ESS4296-2 is a muted olive-khaki velvet with a softly shaded surface rather than a printed motif. Its short, fine pile catches the light gently, creating subtle tonal variation across the plain ground.

About this fabric

Made from 100% polyester, this 138cm-wide velvet is suitable for both contract and domestic upholstery. The olive-khaki colour has a restrained, earthy depth, shifting slightly between mossy olive and warmer khaki where the pile changes direction. Its close surface texture gives the plain fabric a softly tactile appearance without introducing a visible pattern. It is machine washable and carries Contract GreenFR® Plus flame retardancy.

How to use it

Pair this shaded olive velvet with warm timber, aged brass and oat-coloured upholstery for a natural, layered room. On a statement chair or sofa, its khaki undertone can soften darker greens while retaining a smart tailored feel.

Use this muted olive velvet to add depth to upholstered seating while keeping the scheme quietly grounded.

ESS4296-2 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.
