About this fabric

This Harlequin velvet is covered in scrolling leafy motifs, with deep Azul blue-teal spaces setting off pale ivory foliage and saturated paprika orange accents. French ochre adds a mellow, earthy note between the cooler ground and brighter leaf shapes, giving the colourway both depth and visual energy. At 416 gsm and 137.1 cm usable width, it has a substantial specification suited to upholstered seating. The 64.2 cm vertical repeat and 34.5 cm horizontal repeat define a compact, richly populated botanical layout that calls for considered pattern matching.

How to use it

Use it on a statement armchair, headboard or sofa where the cool teal ground can provide depth, while paprika and French ochre accessories draw out the warmer colours in the leaf pattern.

Use the cool Azul ground to anchor upholstery, then echo its French ochre, paprika and ivory accents in cushions or painted details.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Calathea Velvet Azul/French Ochre/Paprika without fighting it. Mixed across the houses we hold, which is the part a single supplier's book cannot do.

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.
