Orpheus Green is a small-scale patterned fabric with a rich mossy olive ground and darker flecked accents across the weave. The surface reads softly textured and grounded, with a tailored feel rather than a glossy finish.

About this fabric

Woven in 18% Cotton Chenille, 47% Cotton and 35% Polyester, this 140cm-wide fabric has a tactile body that suits structured soft furnishings. The 2.5cm pattern repeat creates a neat, regular surface of tiny dark spots that break up the olive ground without overwhelming it. In this colourway, the green is deep and earthy, with a muted brown undertone that keeps it warm and natural rather than bright. The chenille content gives the cloth a subtle depth in the light, making the small-scale pattern feel more dimensional than printed.

How to use it

Use Orpheus Green on an armchair, banquette or ottoman for a refined, understated statement. Its dark olive tone pairs well with oak, aged brass and warm neutrals, adding depth without harsh contrast.

A smart mossy olive that works beautifully on tailored seating and accent cushions.

Pairs well with

Orpheus Green 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.
