About this fabric

This Dedar velvet is shown in Bleu De Prusse, a deep, cool navy-blue with an inky character rather than a bright or softened blue cast. The surface is plain, with no visible motif, while delicate tonal variation and a directional nap create the gentle shading visible across the swatch. As a catalogued velvet, it has a plush, light-responsive face that suits the substantial presence of upholstered furniture. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification.

How to use it

Use this near-blackened blue on a statement armchair, sofa or headboard where its changing nap can add depth. Pair it with chalky whites, warm timber and aged brass to balance the cool Prussian tone.

Use this deep, cool blue velvet to bring ink-like richness to upholstered seating and headboards.

Alpaca Alto Bleu De Prusse 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.
