About this fabric

The swatch reads as a saturated burgundy red, deepening into darker wine tones where the velvet pile turns away from the light. Its surface is plain rather than patterned, with a subtle cloudy variation that gives the dense colour movement. As a catalogued Velvet from Dedar’s Velvet fabrics collection, it is best suited to upholstery. No performance features or further specification data are noted.

How to use it

Use this dark Bordeaux colourway on a statement armchair, sofa or headboard where its wine-red depth can anchor a room. Pair it with warm timber, aged brass or soft neutral upholstery to balance the saturated tone.

A richly shaded Bordeaux velvet for upholstered seating and other statement pieces.

Atlas Novus Bordeaux 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.
