About this fabric

The design is built from compact checks formed by densely interlaced olive, charcoal and brown-grey threads. Fine red lines appear at intervals across the pattern, creating subtle horizontal and vertical accents rather than a bright contrast. The low-key colouring reads cool and shadowed overall, while the uneven woven texture catches small variations of light across the surface. With no further performance specification supplied, its substantial-looking woven appearance makes it especially convincing on traditionally shaped upholstery.

How to use it

Use this olive-charcoal colourway on a buttoned armchair, footstool or tailored sofa, where its muted red striping can sit alongside aged timber, leather and warm neutral linens. It also works well as a grounding check in a room with moss, tobacco or stone accents.

Its dark olive-charcoal ground and restrained red lines bring tailored, country-house character to upholstered seating.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside 8333/10 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.
