About this fabric

This Andrew Martin fabric is catalogued as velvet, and the swatch shows a dense-looking, finely textured surface rather than a printed motif. The Bluebird colourway sits between deep teal and softened blue, with a cool, slightly smoky depth. Fine vertical movement in the nap catches the light unevenly, creating understated shifts from blue-green to darker teal. No performance features or further specification data are supplied for this fabric.

How to use it

Use this cool blue-green on a tailored armchair, sofa or upholstered headboard where its plush texture can provide depth without introducing a pattern. Pair it with warm timber, aged brass and chalky neutrals to balance the shade’s inky teal character.

A deep blue-green velvet with a softly shifting nap, suited to upholstered seating and statement accents.

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.
