About this fabric

The swatch shows a dense-looking velvet surface in a dark burgundy shade, with restrained tonal variation across the pile. Fine vertical and diagonal shifts in the surface catch the light gently, creating a softly mottled effect rather than a pronounced pattern. The colour reads warm, saturated and enveloping, bringing a more intimate mood than brighter reds. As a velvet fabric, it is particularly suited to upholstery where this rich surface can be seen at close range.

How to use it

Use Sansone Bordeaux on a statement armchair, sofa or headboard where its deep wine-red tone can anchor a room. Pair it with aged timber, warm neutrals or smoky charcoal to let the subtle pile variation add depth without introducing a printed motif.

A rich wine-red velvet with subtle pile movement, ideal for adding depth and drama to upholstered seating.

Sansone Bordeaux 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.
