About this fabric

Woven in 100% polyester, this 137 cm-wide velvet has a warm flax-beige tone with a subtle taupe cast rather than a bright or yellowed beige. The close, even pile gives the plain cloth a softly brushed appearance, while the nap creates delicate shifts between lighter and darker areas across the swatch. With a 50,000 Martindale rub-test rating, it is specified for fixed upholstery as well as curtains and bedspreads. After care requires a cool machine wash as a minimum, professional dry cleaning, no tumble drying or bleaching, and a cool iron.

How to use it

Use this warm flax beige to bring softness to a tailored armchair, headboard or upholstered bench, balancing the velvet with chalky whites, natural timber and deeper taupe accents. As curtains or a bedspread, its muted tone adds gentle depth without introducing a strong pattern.

A warm flax-beige velvet with a quiet nap, suited to tailored upholstery, curtains and bedspreads.

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.
