Oriental Garden Mole

Oriental Garden Mole layers blush peonies, ivory blooms and russet flower heads across a deep moss-olive ground. The dense composition has a softly aged, painterly character, with the velvet surface adding depth to the shaded foliage.

About this fabric

This GP & J Baker velvet is woven from 55% viscose and 45% cotton, with a 140 cm width and a substantial 50,000 Martindale rub rating. In this Mole colourway, muted olive and forest greens dominate, while dusty blush petals, warm cream flowers and small touches of rust create a warm, timeworn palette rather than a bright botanical effect. The floral design has a 51 cm vertical repeat and 70 cm horizontal repeat, giving the large blooms and interlaced leaves a clearly visible rhythm across the cloth. It is suitable for curtains, loose upholstery, fixed upholstery and bedspreads.

How to use it

Pair the moss-olive ground with aged oak, warm neutrals and brushed brass, using the blush and cream flowers as gentle accent colours. On a chair or sofa, the dense floral velvet makes a richly layered focal point; across curtains or a bedspread, it brings a darker, enveloping mood.

Use this richly layered olive floral velvet to bring depth to upholstery, curtains, bedspreads and relaxed country-style interiors.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Oriental Garden 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.
