About this fabric

This Andrew Martin velvet reads as a warm ecru, sitting between soft ivory and light beige rather than appearing stark white. Its smooth pile has a faintly cloudy variation, giving the plain surface depth without introducing a visible pattern. The gentle sheen changes across the swatch, revealing slightly darker and lighter areas where the nap lies in different directions. As a velvet, it is particularly well suited to upholstery where its plush surface can be appreciated.

How to use it

Pair this warm ecru with natural timber, aged brass and softly coloured linens for a calm, layered scheme. Its restrained tone also works as a light upholstery choice in rooms needing texture without strong contrast.

Use this softly luminous ecru velvet to bring quiet warmth and plush texture to upholstered furniture.

Pairs well with

Venetia Ecru Velvet | Vintage Mohair 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.
