About this fabric

The visible surface is predominantly black, with irregular charcoal areas that create understated tonal depth rather than a flat solid finish. Light catches the velvet pile softly, revealing a muted, smoky variation through the centre and lower areas of the swatch. Catalogued as a velvet, Plushy Nero has the plush, closely textured appearance associated with upholstery cloth. The restrained colour and low-contrast movement give it a rich, enveloping character.

How to use it

Use Plushy Nero on a statement armchair, sofa or headboard where its near-black tone can create a dramatic anchor. Pair it with warm timber, aged brass or pale stone to bring definition to the depth of the velvet.

Pairs well with

Plushy Nero 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.
