Alpakhan Daino

Name: Alpakhan Daino
Brand: Dedar
SKU: 001

Alpakhan Daino is a softly mottled taupe velvet with a plush, uneven surface that gives the colour gentle depth. The warm mushroom tone reads calm and tactile rather than sleek or high-contrast.

About this fabric

This Dedar velvet is shown in a warm mushroom-taupe shade, with subtle beige and brown variation across the face of the swatch. Its dense-looking nap is visibly irregular, creating a softly rippled texture rather than a perfectly uniform pile. The close, tactile surface gives this colourway a relaxed, quietly earthy character. As a velvet with a substantial visual weight, it reads particularly well for upholstery-led schemes.

How to use it

Use Alpakhan Daino on an occasional chair, headboard or sofa where its warm taupe tone can soften darker woods and sit comfortably beside natural linens, stone and muted browns.

Pairs well with

Alpakhan Daino 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.
