About this fabric

Catalogued as a velvet, Nuvolari Tegola has a dense-looking surface with no visible woven motif or repeat in this swatch. The deep tegola red reads warm and dramatic, shifting between oxblood and near-black burgundy where the nap changes direction. Soft tonal variation across the face gives the plain colour depth rather than a flat finish. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification.

How to use it

Use this colourway on a statement armchair, sofa or upholstered headboard where its dark oxblood tone can act as a rich focal point. Pair it with aged timber, smoked metal or warm neutral upholstery to balance the velvet’s intensity.

Use this deep oxblood velvet to bring concentrated warmth and a dramatic, luxurious finish to upholstery.

Nuvolari Tegola 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.
