About this fabric

The swatch reads as deep tobacco brown warmed with rusty red, while lighter areas appear where the velvet surface catches the light. Subtle cloudy patches give the plain cloth visual depth without introducing a defined motif or repeat. As a velvet fabric, it is particularly suited to upholstery, where its dense-looking surface can add a luxe finish to seating and headboards. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification.

How to use it

Pair this warm tobacco shade with aged timber, caramel leather and muted stone tones; on a sofa or occasional chair, its softly varied surface will provide rich colour without a patterned repeat.

Use this richly toned rust-brown velvet to bring warmth and depth to upholstered seating.

Nuvolari Tabacco 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.
