About this fabric

Woven in 100% polyester, Olympia Mist is a contract fabric with a strong 40,000 Martindale rating, making it a practical choice for busy interiors. The swatch shows a soft grey ground with a fine, grainy weave and a slightly chalky, clouded finish that keeps the colour feeling light rather than flat. This colourway sits in a cool mist tone, with enough texture to add interest without drawing attention from the rest of the scheme. It is supplied back coated to Cigarette & Match to BS5852, and professional dry clean in situ is recommended, with further care guidance available in the pattern book.

How to use it

Use this pale grey on clean-lined seating, banquettes or padded headboards where its subtle texture can gently break up larger surfaces. It pairs especially well with deeper charcoal, weathered oak and crisp white for a composed, modern look.

A calm pale grey that softens larger pieces and layers easily with warmer neutrals.

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.
