About this fabric

The surface has a fine, closely woven appearance, with restrained tonal variation that gives the olive shade gentle depth. Its warm tan undertone keeps the colour grounded and soft, while the olive note becomes more apparent across the slightly darker woven areas. No composition, width or performance specifications are supplied for this colourway. The even, non-directional texture reads as a versatile textile for considered upholstery or drapery schemes.

How to use it

Pair this warm olive-tan with natural wood, chalky neutrals and softly aged brass for an earthy interior. Its quiet surface also works well on a tailored chair, blind or full-length curtain where the colour can provide depth without a strong pattern.

Use its muted olive-tan tone to bring an earthy, quietly textured finish to upholstery or softly tailored window treatments.

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.
