About this fabric

This Dedar velvet has a warm brown depth that approaches near-black in the shaded areas, while softly lit sections reveal a gentler tobacco tone. The close, even face is unpatterned, with the directional nap providing a restrained movement and muted sheen across the swatch. No performance features or further technical specifications are noted for this supplied colourway.

How to use it

Use this dark tobacco shade on a statement armchair, sofa or headboard where its warm depth can anchor lighter walls and natural timber. It also suits layered schemes of cognac, camel, walnut and softly aged brass.

A deep tobacco-brown velvet that brings warmth, depth and a quietly luxurious finish to upholstered pieces.

Pairs well with

Alpaca Alto Tabacco 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.
