About this fabric

This Tarragon colourway has a subdued olive tone with a golden cast, so the surface feels warm rather than bright. The plain design is kept visually calm by a soft, even texture that catches the light with a gentle, almost brushed look. Made from 100% polyester, it is specified for contract use and offers a 50,000 Martindale rub count, making it a practical choice for demanding upholstery projects. It is supplied back coated to Cigarette & Match to BS5852, with other treatments available upon request, and after care is Professional Dry Clean in situ.

How to use it

Use this olive shade on a tailored armchair, banquette or bench seat to add colour without sharp contrast. It pairs well with natural woods, bronzed metals and off-white linens for a grounded, contemporary scheme.

A versatile olive plain that brings depth without overpowering a room.

Pairs well with

Odyssey Tarragon 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.
