About this fabric

The velvet is densely patterned with oversized botanical forms, including broad curling foliage, drooping flower heads and small twisting blossoms. Apatite reads predominantly as a cool, deep teal-green, with near-black shadows giving the design considerable depth. Coral and rust accents bring warmth to the dark ground, while taupe and dusty beige petals soften the contrast. The substantial visual weight and plush velvet character make this an especially confident choice for upholstered seating and statement furniture.

How to use it

Use Apatite on a statement chair, sofa or footstool in a room with dark timber and aged brass. Echo its coral and rust details through cushions or smaller decorative accents, while keeping surrounding walls and flooring restrained.

Use this deep teal velvet to anchor a richly layered room, picking out its coral and rust details with warm accents.

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.
