About this fabric

The surface is defined by fine, evenly spaced vertical wales, giving the cloth a narrow-ribbed, tactile appearance rather than a printed pattern. Nori reads as a muted olive with a brown-leaning depth, creating a grounded and quietly enveloping colour. The visible cord structure gives this fabric a substantial upholstery character and adds directional texture to a chair, sofa or headboard.

How to use it

Use Nori on a statement armchair, dining seat or compact sofa where its deep olive tone can sit alongside warm timber, aged leather and soft cream textiles. The vertical ribs add subtle definition without introducing a strong motif.

A deep olive cord with fine vertical ribs, bringing understated texture and earthy colour to upholstered seating.

Pairs well with

Cord Fr Crib 5 Nori 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.
