Savanna Olive

Name: Savanna Olive
Brand: Porter & Stone

Plains & Semi Plains Fabric

Savanna Olive is a softly mottled plain with a muted olive-khaki cast and a dry, textured cotton handle. The close weave gives the surface a calm, understated depth rather than a flat solid look.

About this fabric

Woven in 100% cotton, this fabric has a compact plain structure and a 140cm width, with no pattern repeat to interrupt cutting layouts. The visible tone sits between olive and khaki, reading earthy and softened rather than bright or yellow-green. Its fine, lightly nubby texture catches the light gently, which helps the colour feel layered and lived-in. That combination makes Savanna Olive an easy choice where you want a grounded neutral with a little more warmth than grey.

How to use it

Use this muted olive shade on relaxed upholstery, cushions or simple curtains where a natural, field-inspired colour will sit comfortably beside oak, linen and aged brass. It works especially well in rooms with warm whites or deeper brown accents, where the khaki undertone can come through.

A quietly earthy plain that layers easily with timber, leather and softened neutrals.

Pairs well with

Savanna Olive 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.
