About this fabric

Mercer Hunting appears as a deep, softened olive green, with darker and lighter threads running in fine horizontal lines across the face. The close view shows an irregular, slub-like woven texture rather than a printed motif, giving the colour gentle movement without a defined pattern. The subdued green reads warm and natural in the image, while the darker flecks add depth across the surface. No composition, width, rub test or performance specification has been supplied for this colourway.

How to use it

Use this earthy olive on a relaxed sofa, occasional chair or full-length curtain where its low-contrast texture can sit comfortably beside timber, linen-look neutrals and deep brown accents.

Pair this softly varied olive with natural wood, warm neutrals and darker earthy accents.

Pairs well with

Mercer Hunting 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.
