About this fabric

Woven from 100% polyester, this 138cm-wide chenille is approved for both contract and domestic upholstery. Fine broken slubs run across the surface, creating subtle shifts between mossy olive, khaki and deeper green as the light moves over the pile. The relaxed texture works particularly well on upholstered chairs, sofas and footstools where the colour can read earthy without becoming overly rustic. It is machine washable and carries Domestic Cig & Match GreenFR®, with treatment available to contract grade.

How to use it

Pair the muted olive tone with warm timber, aged brass and natural linens for an earthy scheme, or set it against chalky neutrals to let the textural green provide the room’s depth. Its softly broken surface is especially effective on relaxed contemporary seating.

Use this muted olive chenille to bring softly textured, earthy colour to upholstered seating.

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.
