About this fabric

This colourway reads as a dark military olive rather than a bright botanical green, giving the swatch a grounded, understated character. Its fine, even surface has a quiet woven texture with subtle tonal variation visible across the cloth. No performance features are noted for this fabric, so suitability should be assessed against the requirements of the intended upholstery project.

How to use it

Use Leaf Military to upholster a contemporary armchair, dining seat or compact sofa where its shadowed olive tone can sit comfortably with warm timber, aged leather and stone neutrals. Its restrained surface also works well as a calm foundation for patterned cushions in rust, ochre or cream.

A deep, earthy olive textile with a quiet mottled surface for grounded upholstery schemes.

Pairs well with

Leaf Military 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.
