About this fabric
The dark midnight background gives this velvet a dramatic, enveloping character, allowing the ochre and cream flowers to stand forward while rust accents add warmth. Large stylised blooms and curling leaves form an abundant all-over botanical repeat, with small berry-like details adding intricacy between the main motifs. The muted olive foliage softens the contrast and keeps the palette grounded rather than brightly saturated. Catalogued as Velvet, this substantial-looking patterned textile is particularly well suited to upholstery where its depth of colour can make a strong visual statement.
How to use it
Use Midnight on a statement armchair, sofa or footstool, pairing its cool dark ground with warm timber, aged brass and earthy rust or ochre accents. It also suits a richly layered room with olive, charcoal and cream surrounding tones.
A richly detailed midnight floral velvet that brings depth and warm botanical colour to upholstered furniture.

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.
