About this fabric

ARTEMIS Organic Velvet - Petrol is built on a cool, deep petrol-teal ground that reads darker and more atmospheric than bright turquoise. Large red poppies, orange and ochre flowers, pale peach blooms and blue-grey foliage create a dense, painterly botanical repeat across the swatch. As catalogued, this is a velvet suited to upholstery, and no performance features are noted in the supplied specification. The strong contrast between the jewel-like crimson flowers and the dark teal field gives the design depth and a distinctly dramatic mood.

How to use it

Use this petrol colourway on a statement armchair, headboard or sofa where its dark teal depth can balance warm timber, aged brass and richly coloured accessories. Pick out the crimson, ochre or peach flowers in cushions and smaller accents rather than competing with the full botanical repeat.

The deep petrol ground gives this exuberant floral velvet a dramatic, jewel-toned presence 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.
