AMATORIA Velvet - Noir

About this fabric

Catalogued as a velvet, AMATORIA Velvet - Noir has no performance features noted in the supplied specification. The large-scale botanical design brings together oversized flowers, rounded seed-heads and curling foliage in a detailed, painterly arrangement. Against the near-black background, the coral and peach blooms appear particularly warm, while the blue-teal flowers and olive leaves add cooler depth. The visibly scalloped, zigzagged swatch edge reinforces the dramatic, decorative character of this colourway.

How to use it

Pair this near-black floral velvet with dark wood, aged brass and warm neutral upholstery to balance its saturated coral and peach blooms. It would bring a richly theatrical finish to a statement armchair, headboard or occasional seat.

Use the near-black ground to frame its coral, peach, teal and ochre florals on statement upholstery.

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.
