About this fabric

This Andrew Martin velvet reads as a rich, dusty red, sitting between berry and wine tones rather than a bright scarlet. Its finely textured nap creates subtle light and dark movement across the surface, giving the plain colour a softly variegated appearance. The fabric is catalogued as Velvet, and its plush visual character makes it particularly suited to upholstery, from occasional chairs to a fully covered sofa. With no pattern competing for attention, the rouge shade becomes the defining feature.

How to use it

Use Cinema Velvet Rouge on a statement armchair, dining chair or sofa where its warm berry-red tone can anchor softer neutrals, dark wood and aged brass. The muted depth of the colour also suits layered, atmospheric schemes rather than sharply high-contrast interiors.

A deep, softly mottled rouge velvet that brings warmth and tonal richness to upholstered seating.

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.
