About this fabric

This fabric is catalogued as Velvet, with a dense floral design spanning open blooms, smaller flowers and overlapping leafy stems. The Noir colourway is anchored by a charcoal-black ground, while cream and dusty pink petals sit alongside scarlet, coral, olive green, mustard and touches of blue. The dark background makes the pattern feel particularly rich and theatrical, with the varied flower heads creating a full, tapestry-like surface. No performance features are noted for this fabric, so project-specific suitability should be considered before ordering.

How to use it

Use Noir on a statement armchair, headboard or occasional sofa where its near-black ground can frame the vivid botanical colours. Balance the busy floral with warm timber, aged brass and plain upholstery in olive, charcoal or soft ivory.

Use this richly coloured floral velvet to bring dramatic botanical depth to statement upholstery against quiet, solid-toned surroundings.

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.
