About this fabric

This velvet shows a symmetrical arrangement of stylised flowers, curling foliage and small berry-like motifs, with the design picked out in softly contrasting shades rather than bright colour. Woven from 56% cotton and 44% linen, it is 132 cm (51.86") wide, with a 59 cm (23.18") vertical repeat and a 33 cm (12.96") horizontal repeat. The mole colouring gives the ornate pattern a subdued, softly aged character while retaining the visual depth of the velvet texture. It is specified for curtains, loose upholstery, fixed upholstery and bedspreads; care is professional dry cleaning only, with no washing, bleaching or ironing.

How to use it

Pair this deep brown-grey mole colourway with warm stone, mushroom and aged wood for a quiet, heritage-inspired scheme. On upholstery or a bedspread, its muted botanical contrast adds richness without introducing a strong accent colour.

Use this deep mole damask to add layered pattern and a softly aged velvet richness to upholstery, curtains or a bedspread.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Lapura Velvet Mole without fighting it. 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.
