About this fabric

This Wemyss Yalamba colourway reads as an earthy olive-brown, with darker and lighter threads creating a quietly variegated finish. The close, nubby weave is visibly substantial and shows delicate vertical striations across the swatch, making it well suited to upholstery. Light catches the raised texture unevenly, preventing the muted shade from appearing flat. No further specification data is supplied for this listing.

How to use it

Use 29 Lizard on a relaxed armchair, sofa or dining seat where its subdued olive tone can sit comfortably beside oak, walnut, stone and warm neutral textiles. Its restrained vertical texture also adds depth to simple, tailored upholstery shapes.

Pair this muted lizard-olive weave with warm woods, natural linens and softly aged leather.

29 Lizard 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.
