About this fabric

This plain Harlequin velvet has a substantial 540gsm weight, giving the surface a dense, softly brushed appearance suited to upholstery. Its deep forest-green tone reads as rich and grounded, while the pile catches light along the fold and settles into near-charcoal green in the shaded areas. With a 141cm usable width and zero vertical and horizontal pattern repeat, it offers a straightforward, uninterrupted surface for upholstered forms.

How to use it

Use this dark forest green on a statement armchair, sofa or banquette where its depth can anchor a room. Pair it with warm wood, aged brass and softly coloured neutrals to balance the velvet’s saturated, shadowy tone.

A rich forest-green velvet whose directional pile creates subtle shifts between shadowed depth and soft highlights on upholstered seating.

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.
