Bordean Lichen

Name: Bordean Lichen
Brand: Titley & Marr

Bordean Lichen reads as a quietly weathered olive with a soft lichen cast and a gentle, matte surface. The weave shows subtle crosswise texture and tonal variation that keeps the colourway grounded and natural.

About this fabric

This Titley & Marr woven fabric has the look of a dry, linen-like cloth with a lightly slubbed, tactile surface. In this colourway, the olive base is softened by brown-grey undertones, giving it an earthy, settled character rather than a bright green note. The weave catches the light very subtly, so the cloth stays low-sheen and calm across the face of the swatch. With no performance features noted, it is presented here as a straightforward decorative textile suited to schemes that want texture without visual noise.

How to use it

Use Bordean Lichen with oak, putty, and aged brass for a grounded scheme, or pair it with chalky whites to lift the muted green-brown tone. It works especially well where a natural, understated fabric is needed to anchor other layered textures.

A calm, earthy neutral that layers easily with timber, linen and stone finishes.

Pairs well with

Bordean Lichen 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.
