About this fabric

This colourway is catalogued as a velvet and has a smooth, closely brushed appearance in the supplied image. The Sabbia shade sits between soft beige and light taupe, with a warm, dusty depth rather than a bright or yellowed finish. There is no visible motif or contrasting weave; the interest comes from the subtle directional change in the velvet pile. Its dense-looking surface and quietly luxurious tone make it especially suited to upholstered furniture.

How to use it

Use this sandy taupe on a sofa, headboard or occasional chair where its softly reflective nap can add depth without dominating the room. Pair it with chalky creams, warm timber and muted stone shades for a calm, tonal scheme.

A softly shaded sandy taupe velvet that brings warmth and understated richness to upholstered seating.

Young Nureyev Sabbia 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.
