Element Fabric

Element Pesto is a muted olive-green textile with a softly earthy cast. Its close-up reveals a dense, finely textured surface marked by delicate horizontal variation rather than a printed motif.

About this fabric

The colour sits between moss and greyed olive, giving the swatch a subdued, grounded depth rather than a bright or saturated green appearance. Fine irregular lines run across the surface, creating a gently ribbed effect that changes subtly as the light catches the weave. The dense, structured-looking construction makes it best suited to upholstery, while no performance features are noted in the supplied specification.

How to use it

Use Element Pesto on a chair, sofa or upholstered headboard where its softened olive tone can bring depth without dominating the room. Pair it with chalky neutrals, walnut wood and aged brass for a warm, quietly collected scheme.

Use this muted pesto olive as a grounding upholstery colour alongside warm woods, natural stone and quiet 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.
