About this fabric

Sansone Cactus is catalogued as a Velvet from Dedar’s Velvet fabrics collection. The swatch has an unpatterned face and a close, softly brushed texture, with the nap shifting between near-black green and clearer emerald highlights. Its deep cactus shade feels saturated and cool rather than muted, giving the plain cloth a strong, atmospheric presence. No composition, width, rub test or other performance specification was supplied for this fabric.

How to use it

Use the deep cactus green on a sofa, armchair or headboard where its dark, saturated tone can act as an anchoring colour. It pairs particularly well with warm timber, aged brass and pale neutral walls, which help the velvet’s subtle surface variation show.

Use this deep cactus green velvet to bring saturated, atmospheric colour to upholstered seating.

Pairs well with

Sansone Cactus 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.
