Canton Olive sets coral, ivory and warm botanical motifs against a deep muted olive ground. The densely arranged floral scene has an antique, garden-inspired character, with the darker background giving the flowers clear depth.

About this fabric

The olive base reads softly muted rather than bright, allowing coral-red blooms, creamy ivory flowers and fine tan foliage to stand out across the surface. Smaller pink, blue and ochre details add colour variation within the dense botanical pattern, while the flat printed surface retains a natural textile warmth. Made from 82% viscose and 18% linen, the fabric is 137 cm (53.82") wide and has a 68 cm (26.71") vertical repeat with a 45.6 cm (17.91") horizontal repeat. It is specified for curtains, loose upholstery, fixed upholstery and bedspreads; professional dry cleaning is required, and it must not be washed, bleached or ironed.

How to use it

Use Canton Olive on a traditional armchair, upholstered headboard or full-length curtains where its deep olive ground can anchor a room. Pair it with warm ivory, aged coral, natural timber and muted brass to draw out the floral accents without competing with the dense pattern.

A richly detailed botanical floral suited to curtains, upholstered pieces and bedspreads.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Canton Olive without fighting it. 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.
