Rivoli Aubergine reads as a very dark plum-purple with a soft, velvety surface and a restrained, almost smoky depth. The plain cloth has a closely woven look that lets the colour do the talking.

About this fabric

This colourway from the Rivoli III collection is woven in 93% cotton and 7% modal, giving it a dry-soft handle and a subtle, tactile finish. The swatch shows a rich aubergine tone with burgundy undertones, sitting close to black in the shadows and catching the light with a muted wine-like sheen. With a repeat of 0cm vertical and 0cm horizontal approximately, it presents as a clean plain fabric rather than a patterned one. At 140cm approx. wide, it is well suited to upholstery projects where a deep, elegant solid is needed without visual distraction.

How to use it

Use this shade on an armchair, banquette or upholstered wall panel where its dark plum colour can add depth without feeling harsh. It pairs neatly with walnut, brass and soft neutrals, or with pale stone tones for a sharper contrast.

A rich, cocooning shade that works beautifully on tailored seating or a quiet statement headboard.

Pairs well with

Rivoli Aubergine 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.
