Patina Verde

Name: Patina Verde
Brand: Mark Alexander

Patina Verde is a deep olive-grey textile with a subdued, patinated character. Its finely gridded weave gives the surface gentle tonal movement rather than a perfectly flat solid appearance.

About this fabric

This colourway sits between charcoal and muted green, reading cool and smoky in the swatch rather than bright or botanical. A fine, even plain weave is clearly visible, with tiny darker and lighter threads creating a softly textured surface. The cloth appears versatile enough for both upholstery and drapery, based on its balanced mid-weight visual character. No composition, width or performance specification was supplied for this colourway.

How to use it

Use Patina Verde to temper warm timber, aged brass and natural stone, or introduce it on a sofa or curtain where its deep olive-grey tone can act as a quiet architectural neutral.

A smoky olive-grey plain weave that brings quiet depth to upholstered seating, cushions or relaxed window treatments.

Pairs well with

Patina Verde 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.
