Colour Spotlight – Sage Green Takes Centre Stage

This season, one shade is quietly stealing the show—sage green. Subtle, calming, and effortlessly versatile, sage has emerged as the go-to colour for spring and summer 2025. Whether it’s woven into textiles, brushed across ceramics, or painted onto walls, this earthy hue is making waves across the artisan world.

Let’s take a closer look at how sage green is shaping the creative landscape right now.

1. A Breath of Fresh Air

Sage green is the colour of renewal—soft and subdued, yet full of life. It brings a sense of balance and peace, mirroring the tranquillity of nature. It’s no surprise that makers are embracing it wholeheartedly in everything from hand-dyed fabrics to recycled glassware and home décor.

Whether paired with crisp whites, warm neutrals, or deeper forest tones, sage offers a timeless and grounding backdrop that suits both contemporary and rustic styles.

2. In the Home: Calm & Curated

Interior artisans are turning to sage green to bring a sense of serenity indoors. Think hand-thrown pottery glazed in soft sage, embroidered cushions with botanical motifs, and furniture painted in chalky green tones. It’s a colour that lends itself beautifully to minimal, well-crafted pieces that stand the test of time.

Adding a touch of sage can instantly refresh a space without overwhelming it—perfect for the spring/summer shift.

3. Fashion Goes Botanical

In clothing and accessories, sage green is a standout on lightweight linens, knitted tops, and everyday bags. Its muted quality works beautifully with natural fibres and handmade details like block printing and embroidery. The colour carries a sense of quiet confidence—elegant without shouting.

We’re especially loving sage paired with gold jewellery and raffia accents for that breezy, sun-kissed look.

4. Botanical Beauty & Self-Care

Artisans in the self-care space are also embracing the green trend. From sage-scented soy candles and botanical bath salts to handmade soap swirls in olive and eucalyptus tones, it’s a colour that evokes both freshness and restoration. It’s not just about the visuals—it’s about how the colour makes you feel.

5. Why Sage, Why Now?

Sage green’s popularity is no accident. In an increasingly fast-paced world, people are craving calm, nature, and authenticity—values that this shade embodies beautifully. It complements the slow-living ethos that so many artisans embrace: making with intention, living with care, and choosing with purpose.

Final Thoughts

Sage green isn’t just a passing trend—it’s a reflection of where we’re headed: towards a more conscious, grounded way of living. Whether it’s a handcrafted mug, a breezy summer blouse, or a woven wall hanging, this gentle hue is bringing a breath of calm to every corner of the artisan world.
