About this fabric

Catalogued as a velvet, Sansone Tournesol has a smooth, softly brushed face with no visible motif or repeat. The saturated yellow reads warm and sunny rather than lemon-cool, while the pile gives the colour subtle depth as the light shifts across it. No performance features are noted for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Use this rich sunflower yellow on a statement chair, ottoman or sofa to introduce a warm focal point. Pair it with chalky neutrals, natural wood and deep olive accents to temper its brightness without losing its golden character.

Use this warm sunflower yellow velvet to bring saturated colour and soft light-catching texture to upholstered seating.

Pairs well with

Sansone Tournesol 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.
