About this fabric

The colour sits between fresh leaf green and chartreuse, creating a warm, energetic green rather than a cool emerald or deep olive. A fine, uniform texture covers the surface, while subtle tonal variation gives the plain face a gentle nap-like depth. The fabric’s visually substantial, smooth finish makes it best suited to upholstery applications. No performance features or further specification data are noted for this colourway.

How to use it

Use Cactus green on a statement chair, headboard or sofa where its yellow-green brightness can energise quieter taupe, cream or warm grey surroundings. Keep neighbouring textiles softly textured to complement the swatch’s low-sheen suede effect.

The bright cactus-green tone and restrained suede-like surface bring a fresh, tailored accent to upholstered seating.

Pairs well with

Dakota Suede Ii Cactus 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.
