About this fabric
The fine, compact weave has a softly irregular grain, creating a tactile surface without a visible motif. Woven from 48% Viscose, 34% Cotton and 18% Polyester, Matrix Sage is 137 cm wide and suitable for curtains, loose upholstery, fixed upholstery and bedspreads. A 40,000 Martindale rub test supports its use on upholstered furniture, while the muted olive cast keeps the overall effect calm rather than strongly botanical. Care instructions specify professional dry cleaning only; do not wash, bleach or iron.
How to use it
Pair Matrix Sage with warm timber, parchment neutrals and aged brass to bring out its earthy olive depth. Its softly mottled weave also works well on a relaxed armchair, full-length curtains or a matching bedspread.
Use this softly textured olive sage for relaxed upholstery, curtains or coordinated bedspreads.

Pairs well with
Matrix Sage 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.
