About this fabric

This plain Morris & Co. velvet reads as a cool, earthy olive rather than a bright or yellow green, with fine tonal variation visible across the nap. At 556 gsm, it has a substantial handle that is particularly well suited to upholstery. The fabric has a 134 cm usable width and a 0 cm pattern repeat in both directions, making the unbroken colour easy to position across upholstered forms. A thread density of 51.5 threads per centimetre contributes to the closely woven appearance visible in the swatch.

How to use it

Use this deep olive colourway on a tailored sofa, armchair or headboard where its dense velvet nap can create gentle light-and-shadow movement. Pair it with warm timber, aged brass and soft stone neutrals to balance the shade’s grounded, woodland character.

A weighty, quietly luxurious olive velvet for upholstered seating and statement furniture.

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.
