About this fabric

Catalogued as velvet with an Outdoor performance feature, Firepit Thunder combines a dense-looking surface with an elegant, liquid quality in the folds. The colour reads as a cool, deep charcoal rather than a warm brown-grey, while the highlights shift towards soft graphite silver. A plain, unpatterned face keeps the emphasis on the pile and the sculptural movement of the fabric. Its substantial velvet appearance makes it particularly suited to upholstered seating and other statement pieces.

How to use it

Use this cool charcoal-grey colourway on a statement chair, headboard or sofa where its silvered highlights can follow the curves of the upholstery. Balance the depth with pale stone, smoked glass or brushed metal accents for a polished, atmospheric scheme.

Use this deep charcoal velvet to bring softly reflective texture and a luxurious, tailored mood to upholstery.

Firepit Thunder | Outdoor Velvet 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.
