About this fabric

Catalogued as a fabric, Nova Fr Fern has a visually substantial, close-textured surface that reads as well suited to upholstery. The colour sits between moss and olive, with a muted brown depth that keeps the green feeling refined rather than bright. Fine directional shading across the surface adds quiet movement without introducing a visible pattern. No composition, width or performance-test details are supplied for this colourway.

How to use it

Pair this dark fern-olive with warm timber, aged brass and natural linen for a grounded scheme, or use it on a statement chair where its subtle surface texture can catch the light.

Use this deep fern-olive shade to bring grounded colour and softly tactile depth to upholstered seating.

Pairs well with

Nova Fr Fern 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.
