Cosima Sky Blue

About this fabric

Part of the Cosima Velvet II collection by Colefax and Fowler, this velvet is composed of 56% viscose and 44% cotton and comes in an approximate width of 140cm with no visible repeat. The colour reads as a misty sky blue with a slightly greyed undertone, so it feels fresh rather than bright. Its velvety surface catches the light unevenly, creating a calm clouded effect that adds depth without pattern. With its upholstered handle and soft sheen, it is well suited to seating and statement soft furnishings that need a relaxed but refined finish.

How to use it

Use this colourway on an occasional chair, banquette or headboard to bring a cool washed-blue note into a room. It pairs especially well with chalky whites, pale oak and brushed metal finishes.

A cool, airy blue velvet that lifts upholstery with a quiet, contemporary ease.

Pairs well with

Cosima Sky 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.
