Alonso FabricCCF0397-11

Nola Olive is a deep, muted olive textile with a softly mottled surface that shifts gently between mossy green and shaded khaki. Its low, velvety nap gives the colour a quiet depth rather than a flat, uniform finish.

About this fabric

The close-up image shows a dense, short-pile surface with subtle tonal variation across the olive ground, creating a softly brushed, almost suede-like appearance. At 304gsm, this is a substantial fabric well suited to upholstery applications. It has a 140cm usable width and a standard length of 30m. With a 0cm vertical and horizontal pattern repeat, the surface can be applied without matching a repeating motif.

How to use it

Pair Nola Olive with warm timber, aged brass and soft natural linens to draw out its earthy moss tone. It works particularly well on a statement armchair, sofa or upholstered headboard where the changing surface texture can be seen.

Use this deep, muted olive on upholstery where its softly mottled surface can add quiet depth.

Pairs well with

Nola Olive 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.
