About this fabric

Nuvolari Rosso is a velvet with a warm, saturated crimson-red ground. Across the swatch, cloudy lighter and darker passages soften the solid colour, creating a gently variegated surface rather than a printed motif. The nap catches the light unevenly, shifting between bright scarlet-red and deeper wine-toned shadow. Its rich velvet face makes it especially suited to upholstered seating, where this tonal movement can add depth across a larger form.

How to use it

Use this intense crimson-red on a statement armchair, sofa or headboard where its mottled velvet surface can provide warmth and visual depth. Balance the saturated tone with pale neutrals, dark timber or aged brass.

Use this saturated crimson velvet to give upholstered pieces a rich, tactile focal point.

Nuvolari Rosso 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.
