About this fabric

The velvet has an even, unpatterned face, with a fine nap that gives the lavender tone a subtle smoky depth rather than a bright, saturated appearance. The colour sits between soft purple and dusky mauve, reading cool and quietly luxurious in this image. The supplied catalogue records no further specification data, so composition, width and rub-test information are not stated. Its substantial-looking velvet texture makes it best considered for upholstered pieces.

How to use it

Pair this cool lavender-mauve with chalky creams, warm taupes or deep walnut to balance its softly shadowed tone. It would bring restrained colour and tactile depth to a reading chair, headboard or compact sofa.

Use its cool lavender-mauve velvet face on an accent chair, headboard or tailored sofa against warm neutrals and dark wood.

Pairs well with

Alpaca Alto Lavanda 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.
