Destino FabricDES3047

DES3047 is a deep brown-taupe velvet with a quietly mottled surface rather than a visible motif. The shade shifts subtly across the swatch as the nap catches the light, giving the plain ground a soft, dimensional finish.

About this fabric

This colourway reads as a dark mocha taupe, combining brown warmth with a restrained grey cast. Its close velvet surface has fine directional variation, creating gentle tonal movement across the otherwise plain design. Made from 100% polyester and supplied at 138cm wide, it is graded for domestic upholstery and is machine washable. The fabric has Domestic Cig & Match flame retardancy and can be treated to Crib 5 contract grade.

How to use it

Use the deep mocha-taupe shade on a sofa, armchair or upholstered headboard where its softly shifting velvet surface can add depth without introducing a pattern. Pair it with warm timber, smoked metal and lighter stone or oat tones to prevent the dark colourway from feeling heavy.

A dark mocha-taupe velvet for quietly luxurious domestic upholstery.

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.
