Babette Olive
Flori Fabric001
Babette Olive shows a leafy trailing pattern in a muted olive tone across a pale linen ground. The design feels airy and botanical, with the print reading crisp rather than heavy.

About this fabric
Woven in 100% linen and supplied at 137cm wide, Babette Olive combines a fresh printed leaf trail with the natural slub and soft handle visible in the cloth. The olive motif is warm but restrained, sitting on an off-white ground that keeps the overall effect light and easy to live with. With a Martindale rub test of 30,000 and an upholstery grade of General Domestic, it is a practical choice for fixed upholstery where a decorative finish is wanted. It also carries FR rating A, conforming to BS5852 Part 1 Source 0 and 1, and can be machine washed at 30C with around 3% shrinkage allowance.
How to use it
Use Babette Olive on a compact armchair, banquette or headboard where the leafy repeat can be seen clearly. Its soft olive and linen base pair neatly with oak, rattan, and chalky neutrals for a calm, tailored room.
A fresh olive leaf motif that feels crisp on linen and suits tailored country interiors.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Babette Olive without fighting it. 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.
