About this fabric

This colourway has a warm ivory base with just enough depth to stop it feeling stark white, and the tiny woven structure adds quiet texture across the whole swatch. It is a contract fabric in 100% polyester, with a Martindale rub test of 40,000, so it is specified for demanding interiors as well as everyday use. The fabric is supplied back coated to Cigarette & Match to BS5852, with other treatments available on request, and after care is professional dry clean in situ. As a plain from the Olympia collection, it offers a restrained, versatile finish that still shows character through its close weave and softly speckled surface.

How to use it

Use this pale neutral on streamlined seating, banquettes or headboards where you want a bright but forgiving finish. It works especially well with light timber, stone and deeper charcoal or olive accents.

A clean neutral that layers easily with oak, linen and deeper accent colours.

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.
