Bruges Olive

Name: Bruges Olive

Bruges Olive is a deep, earthy olive-brown textile with a close-up surface full of small woven irregularities. Its darker tone shifts gently across the folds, revealing a tactile, softly dimensional face.

About this fabric

The colour sits between muted olive and brown, giving the fabric a grounded, woodland character rather than a vivid green appearance. A fine, nubby weave is clearly visible across the swatch, with tiny lighter flecks and darker points creating gentle tonal variation. The surface catches the light unevenly as it folds, bringing out the cloth's textured depth without introducing a separate printed motif.

How to use it

Pair Bruges Olive with warm timber, aged brass and other earthy neutrals for a calm, enveloping scheme. Its dark olive-brown tone is especially effective on statement chairs, footstools and deep upholstered seating.

Use this earthy olive-brown weave to bring depth and tactile interest to upholstered seating.

Bruges 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.
