About this fabric

This colourway sits between softened mustard and olive, with a warm, earthy tone rather than a bright yellow finish. Fine horizontal slubs run across the woven surface, creating delicate tonal shifts as the light moves over it. The texture is understated and tactile, keeping the overall appearance calm and informal. Its plain construction lets the nuanced Bumblebee shade remain the main visual feature.

How to use it

Use 28 Bumblebee on relaxed upholstery where its warm mustard-olive tone can sit comfortably with natural wood, ochre accents and softened neutrals. The fine horizontal texture adds interest without introducing a separate pattern.

A softly textured mustard-olive weave for relaxed upholstered pieces.

Pairs well with

28 Bumblebee 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.
