About this fabric

Catalogued as a velvet, Atlas Novus Petrolio has the plush, directional appearance associated with this fabric type and is best suited to upholstery. Its dark petrol tone sits between deep green and blue, giving the plain surface a cool, inky depth rather than a bright or grassy character. Gentle changes in the pile make the colour look lighter in some areas and almost charcoal-green in others. No performance features are noted for this fabric.

How to use it

Pair this cool petrol-green upholstery with warm timber, aged brass or smoky neutrals to balance its deep, saturated tone. It would bring particular depth to a reading chair, banquette or upholstered headboard.

Use this deep petrol shade on an occasional chair, sofa or headboard where its softly changing nap can add depth.

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.
