About this fabric

The swatch reads as a rich rum brown, sitting between softened terracotta and dark reddish brown rather than a clear orange or red. Light catches the short pile unevenly, creating gentle vertical and tonal variation across the otherwise plain surface. This catalogued Velvet has a dense-looking, tactile appearance that makes the colour feel especially suited to substantial upholstery. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification.

How to use it

Pair the warm rum-brown shade with aged timber, tobacco leather and muted stone neutrals for a cocooning room, or use it as a deeper accent against pale walls.

Use this dusky rum-brown velvet to add warm depth to upholstered seating, headboards or accent cushions.

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.
