About this fabric
The swatch reads as a dark balsam green, softened by blue-grey undertones rather than a warm or yellowed base. Its face is plain and closely even, with only subtle surface variation and no visible motif. The low-key texture catches the light gently, preventing the deep shade from appearing completely flat. No composition, width, rub test or performance features have been supplied for this colourway.
How to use it
Use Smooth Balsam to bring cool, grounded depth to an upholstered chair, sofa or headboard, or pair it with pale stone, greyed timber and brushed metal for a composed scheme. Its muted blue-green tone also works well as a dark, quiet curtain colour where a softer alternative to charcoal is wanted.
A deep, cool balsam tone with a quiet surface that suits tailored upholstery and understated window treatments.

Smooth Balsam 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.
