About this fabric
The colour reads as a pale olive green, tempered with a cool grey cast that keeps it understated and easy on the eye. A tiny, even woven texture is visible across the surface, with delicate tonal shifts where the light catches the threads. The cloth appears fine and closely constructed, making it particularly suited to drapery and light window treatments. No composition, width, rub-test rating or additional performance features were supplied for this colourway.
How to use it
Use this muted olive as a calm curtain or blind fabric alongside chalky neutrals, warm timber and natural stone. Its greyed tone also works well with deeper olive, moss and soft brown accents without making the room feel saturated.
A softly muted olive with a fine, even weave for understated curtains and relaxed window treatments.

Pairs well with
29 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.
