DES3053 is a deep forest-green velvet with a close, tactile surface and soft tonal variation across the pile. The green reads cool and saturated, while slight changes in the nap create gentle lighter and darker passages.

About this fabric

This 100% polyester velvet has an even, close-textured face with no visible printed motif, allowing its deep green colour and subtle light-catching nap to provide the visual interest. At 138cm wide, it is catalogued for domestic upholstery. Aftercare is machine washable, and its flame retardancy is Domestic Cig & Match, with the option to treat it to Crib 5 contract grade. The forest tone brings depth without the high brightness of a vivid emerald, making the colourway feel grounded and composed.

How to use it

Use this deep forest green on an armchair, sofa or dining seat where its softly shifting pile can add richness to a room. Balance the saturated tone with warm wood, aged brass or restrained neutral upholstery so the green remains the focal colour.

A richly coloured green velvet for domestic upholstery, with subtle nap shading that adds depth without a printed motif.

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.
