About this fabric

This colourway reads as a subdued olive-green rather than a bright or yellow olive, with a low-key depth across the swatch. Its smooth, closely even appearance gives the fabric a clean, tailored look without a pronounced sheen or visible pattern. The surface remains visually calm in the image, allowing the earthy tone to provide the definition. No performance features are noted in the supplied information.

How to use it

Use Smooth Olive on a tailored chair, headboard or compact sofa where its brown-leaning green can bring quiet depth. Balance it with warm neutrals, natural wood and softly contrasting cream textiles.

Pair this subdued brown-olive with warm timber, stone and softly aged brass for a quietly tailored scheme.

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.
