Olympia Chiffon is a softly lit cream plain with a fine, tightly worked texture and a calm, even surface. Its pale ivory tone reads warm rather than stark, giving it an understated, refined feel.

About this fabric

Part of the Olympia collection by J Brown, this plain fabric is woven in 100% polyester and specified for contract use. It carries a 40,000 Martindale rub test, making it a practical choice where durability matters, and it is supplied back coated to Cigarette & Match to BS5852. Visually, Chiffon is a gentle ivory-cream shade with a dry, lightly mottled weave that softens the light and avoids looking flat. The overall effect is clean and quietly tailored, with enough texture to add interest without disturbing a pared-back scheme. Professional dry clean in situ is recommended, with further care details in the pattern book.

How to use it

Use this soft cream on upholstered banquettes, occasional chairs or pared-back contract seating where a lighter neutral is needed. It also works well beside pale timber, putty, stone and warm metallic finishes for a calm, polished room.

A restrained neutral that keeps seating looking fresh and contract-ready.

Pairs well with

Olympia Chiffon 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.
