About this fabric

Catalogued as a Velvet, Young Nureyev Denim has a plain surface with a softly mottled appearance visible across the swatch. Its cool denim-blue tone sits close to charcoal in the darker areas, while lifted sections of the nap catch the light with a gentler blue sheen. The supplied information lists no performance features, so its appeal here is the depth and tactile visual character of the velvet itself.

How to use it

Use this cool, charcoal-tinged denim blue on a sofa, armchair or headboard where its quiet tonal shifts can add depth without introducing a visible motif. Pair it with chalky neutrals, smoked timber and warm metal accents to balance its cooler cast.

A cool, charcoal-leaning denim velvet that brings depth and understated polish to upholstered seating.

Pairs well with

Young Nureyev Denim 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.
