About this fabric

The colour sits between mushroom taupe and charcoal grey, giving this velvet a subdued, earthy depth rather than a warm beige appearance. Its low-contrast surface has a fine, slightly directional nap, visible in the subtle vertical shifts across the swatch. No composition, width or rub-test data is supplied for this exact listing, and no performance features are noted. The restrained colour and softly changing pile are the defining visible characteristics of this Dedar Velvet fabrics colourway.

How to use it

Use this mushroom taupe-grey on a tailored sofa, armchair or upholstered headboard where its quiet depth can soften stronger wood tones and sit comfortably with stone, charcoal and warm neutral shades.

A deep mushroom taupe-grey velvet that brings quiet depth to upholstered seating and headboards.

Pairs well with

Alpaca Alto Lupo 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.
