Misc Velvet

In this swatch, House Cotton Velvet reads as a deep, cool denim blue with a calm, shadowed surface. The plain velvet catches the light subtly, giving the colour gentle tonal movement rather than a flat finish.

About this fabric

The colour sits between rich navy and softened denim, with a charcoal cast in the darker areas of the pile. Its plain surface has the close, softly brushed appearance associated with velvet, while changes in direction create faint vertical and cloudy shifts in tone. The supplied catalogue identifies this fabric as Velvet; no additional composition, width or performance specifications are provided.

How to use it

Use this cool, deep blue on a sofa, armchair or upholstered headboard where its quiet pile can add depth without introducing a pattern. It pairs particularly well with pale timber, warm neutrals and muted grey-blue accents.

A deep, cool denim blue with a softly changing velvet pile that suits tailored upholstery.

Pairs well with

House Cotton Velvet Denim Blue 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.
