Velours Tosca FabricM4094-05

Velours Moorea Prairie shows a dense, mottled velvet surface in earthy olive and pale oat tones. The pattern reads like a fine, irregular painterly scatter, giving the fabric movement without losing its grounded feel.

About this fabric

Part of the Velours Tosca collection by Manuel Canovas, this fabric is made from 92% viscose and 8% polyester, with a width of approximately 136cm and a vertical repeat of around 20cm and horizontal repeat of around 17cm. The pile catches the light with a soft lustre, lifting the olive ground into warmer, khaki-tinged highlights and leaving the motif in a lighter, parchment-like contrast. Its compact, textured look suits it to upholstery, where the velvet finish and the small-scale repeat can read crisply across cushions, chairs or a statement sofa. The overall effect is natural but tailored, with a slightly antique, sun-warmed quality rather than a bright green cast.

How to use it

Use this prairie olive on an armchair, ottoman or banquette with walnut, cane or linen to emphasise its earthy depth. It also sits well beside muted terracotta, tobacco and chalky neutrals for a layered, collected scheme.

Pairs well with warm woods and soft neutrals for a tailored, grounded look.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Velours Moorea Prairie without fighting it. 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.
