About this fabric
The fabric is catalogued as a textile fabric and has a compact woven appearance suited to upholstery. Narrow zigzag lines run across the surface, creating a restrained herringbone-like texture rather than a bold graphic motif. Olive green is tempered with grey, pale beige and tiny darker flecks, so the colour reads subdued and gently tonal rather than saturated. Light catches the raised weave unevenly, giving the otherwise calm shade a little movement.
How to use it
Use 05 Olive on a tailored armchair, sofa or dining seat where its greyed olive tone can sit comfortably with stone, warm timber and natural linens. The small-scale chevron texture adds interest without competing with patterned cushions or artwork.
A softly muted olive-grey weave that brings subtle chevron texture to upholstered seating.

Pairs well with
A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside 05 Olive without fighting it. 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.
