About this fabric

Woven in 100% rPET chenille, this 138cm-wide fabric has a compact, nubby surface rather than a printed motif. The olive tone is muted and slightly warm, with darker horizontal tonal movement that keeps the colour from appearing flat. Rated for contract and domestic upholstery, Messina is also machine washable for practical everyday use. It carries Domestic Cig & Match GreenFR® and can be treated to contract grade.

How to use it

Pair this earthy olive shade with warm timber, natural linen and tobacco leather for a grounded scheme, or use it to soften charcoal and cream upholstery. Its tonal depth is especially effective on generous sofa cushions and softly shaped armchairs.

Use this softly mottled olive chenille to bring grounded colour and tactile depth to sofas, chairs and occasional upholstery.

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.
