About this fabric

The close velvet surface appears subtly mottled as the nap catches the light, creating gentle shifts between silvery grey and a slightly deeper haze. This is a quiet, low-contrast colourway rather than a bright or strongly blue grey, making its depth come from texture and shading. Catalogued as Velvet under the name Medici Luxury Cotton Velvet, it has the substantial visual character expected of a furnishing velvet. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification.

How to use it

Use Drizzle on a statement armchair, sofa or upholstered headboard where its cool pale grey tone can soften darker timber, charcoal, blue or silver accents. Its understated surface also suits a calm, contemporary room needing texture without pattern.

A softly luminous pale grey velvet for elegant upholstery with a calm, contemporary feel.

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.
