About this fabric

The plain surface has a muted olive cast that settles into a rich brown-taupe depth, rather than reading as a clear khaki or flat brown. Gentle variations across the face catch the light softly, creating a low-contrast nap effect without a visible pattern. The cloth falls into broad, fluid folds, suggesting a versatile mid-weight appearance suitable for both upholstered forms and softer window treatments. No performance features are noted in the supplied listing.

How to use it

Use this grounded olive-taupe shade to bring warmth to charcoal, aged timber and creamy neutrals. Its subdued surface would work particularly well on relaxed upholstery or full, softly gathered curtains.

Pairs well with

Vaquero Racing 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.
