About this fabric

The dark brown tone sits between chocolate and tobacco, reading warm and enveloping rather than bright or red. Narrow cream-to-tan lines break across the surface in fragmented geometric paths, with larger diagonals and angled forms creating a bold abstract drawing. The short velvet pile gives the ground a dense, softly varied texture as the light moves across it. As a velvet fabric, this weight and surface are especially well suited to upholstered seating, headboards and occasional pieces where the pattern can be seen at close range.

How to use it

Use Goodfellas Tabacco on a statement armchair, sofa or ottoman in a room with warm timber, aged brass and undyed linen. Its deep tobacco base can anchor lighter walls while the pale linear markings introduce a graphic note without losing the room’s warmth.

A deep tobacco velvet with angular pale markings, suited to statement upholstery and richly layered interiors.

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.
