About this fabric

The small, even weave gives this textile a calm, understated texture rather than a visible motif or repeat. Its muted olive tone has a cool grey cast in the highlights, while the folded areas deepen towards brownish taupe. The fabric is catalogued as a textile with no performance features noted, making its quiet woven appearance the defining detail of this colourway.

How to use it

Pair the softened olive-taupe tone with warm timber, stone and aged leather for a grounded scheme, or use it against creamy neutrals where the fine weave can add depth without introducing a pattern.

Use this subdued olive-taupe weave to bring grounded colour and quiet texture to upholstery or curtains.

Pairs well with

Loomspun Turtle 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.
