About this fabric

Part of the Odyssey collection by J Brown, this plain fabric is woven in 100% polyester and specified for contract use. It carries a strong 50,000 Martindale rating and is supplied back coated to Cigarette & Match to BS5852, with other treatments available on request. Visually, Cadet is a deep blue-green with a softened, almost brushed appearance rather than a sharp or glossy finish. The shade sits between teal and charcoal, so it feels more restrained and sophisticated than a brighter jewel tone. Professional dry clean in situ is advised, with further care notes available in the pattern book.

How to use it

Use Cadet on larger upholstery pieces where its dark teal tone can anchor a scheme without feeling heavy. It pairs particularly well with pale oak, warm brass, and soft grey textiles for a smart, tailored look.

A dark teal plain that adds depth and polish to clean-lined upholstery.

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.
