Name: Young Nureyev Opera
Brand: Dedar

Young Nureyev Opera is a deep garnet-red velvet with a quiet, softly varied surface. The plain face absorbs and returns light across the nap, giving the colour subtle depth rather than a flat finish.

About this fabric

This Dedar velvet appears in a saturated, wine-leaning red, with gentle tonal movement visible across the swatch. Its surface is plain, with no visible motif, while the short nap creates a soft, slightly mottled texture as the light shifts. As a velvet, it has the visual weight and plush character expected of an upholstery cloth. The deep red tone gives larger upholstered forms a dramatic, enveloping presence.

How to use it

Pair this garnet-red velvet with dark timber, aged brass or warm neutrals to create a rich, intimate scheme. It is especially effective on a compact armchair, bench or statement sofa where the changing nap can be appreciated.

Use this rich garnet velvet to bring depth to tailored seating and statement accents.

Pairs well with

Young Nureyev Opera 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.
