About this fabric

The swatch has a plain, closely woven appearance, with delicate horizontal slubs creating movement across the olive-green ground. Its tone sits between moss, khaki and soft grey, reading cooler and more subdued in the darker areas of the weave. Light catches the fine surface variations rather than producing a strong sheen, giving the colourway a relaxed, tactile character. No composition, width, rub test or performance specification has been supplied for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Use Willow to bring a quiet olive note to a neutral room, where its greyed depth can sit comfortably with stone, mushroom and warm timber. The fine horizontal texture would suit a relaxed upholstered chair, sofa or softly made curtain.

A versatile willow-olive weave with quiet horizontal texture for relaxed upholstery or softly tailored drapery.

Pairs well with

Orion Iii Willow 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.
