About this fabric

The visible surface is a dense, even velvet with no printed motif, while the nap creates understated shifts between warmer brown-grey and softer grey as it changes direction. This colourway feels grounded rather than cool, giving the fabric a calm depth that works especially well against pale stone, natural timber and darker brown accents. Catalogued as Velvet, it has no performance features noted in the supplied specification. The restrained sheen keeps the finish luxurious without making the warm grey look bright or flashy.

How to use it

Use the warm grey on a tailored sofa, occasional chair or headboard where its softly shaded pile can add depth without introducing a strong pattern. Pair it with chalky neutrals and walnut or smoked-oak timber to bring out its taupe warmth.

Use this muted warm grey velvet on a statement armchair, sofa or upholstered headboard for a quietly luxurious finish.

Medici Luxury Cotton Velvet in Warm grey 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.
