Diapason Militare

Name: Diapason Militare
Brand: Dedar
SKU: 005

Diapason Militare has a deep, muted olive-grey appearance, with a compact diagonal texture that gives the plain-looking surface gentle movement. Its cool, earthy tone reads understated rather than overtly green.

About this fabric

The swatch shows a tightly formed textile with fine diagonal ridges running across the surface, creating a subtle, almost peppered variation in the shade. Olive, charcoal and grey-green threads combine to give Militare its softened depth, while the low-contrast texture keeps the overall effect quiet. The compact-looking weave makes this colourway particularly suited to upholstered furniture. No further performance specifications were supplied for this fabric.

How to use it

Pair Diapason Militare with warm timber, aged leather and chalky neutrals to balance its cool olive-grey tone. It would work well on a tailored armchair, sofa or dining seat where the fine texture can be seen at close range.

Use this deep olive-grey upholstery cloth to bring quiet, tactile depth to seating and occasional pieces.

Diapason Militare 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.
