Cotton Velvet Olive is a deep, muted olive green velvet with a softly mottled surface created by the direction of its pile. The brown-grey undertone keeps the colour composed rather than bright.

About this fabric

The swatch reads as a quiet olive green, shaded with brown-grey depth rather than a vivid leafy green. Its plain face has a fine, close texture, while the velvet pile catches the light in subtle darker and lighter vertical shifts across the photographed surface. The supplied 420 gsm weight and 71 threads per cm give this upholstery velvet a substantial, dense specification, with a usable width of 140 cm. Both the vertical and horizontal pattern repeats are 0 cm, so there is no motif to match when cutting.

How to use it

Use this muted, earthy olive on a sofa, armchair or dining seat where its low-contrast pile can add depth without introducing a visible pattern. It works particularly well alongside warm timber, stone neutrals and darker brown accents.

A dense, plain olive velvet with softly shifting nap that brings depth to upholstered seating.

Pairs well with

Cotton Velvet 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.
