Performance Velvets Glacier

Performance Velvets Glacier is a pale, icy blue-grey velvet with a softly brushed surface that shifts gently as the pile catches the light. The folded swatch shows an entirely plain face, allowing its cool tone and subtle nap direction to lead.

About this fabric

This plain Harlequin velvet has a softly textured, short-looking pile visible across the swatch, with highlights moving between the folded bands and deeper blue-grey shading in the recesses. Its substantial 540 gsm weight makes it well suited to upholstery, particularly where a cushioned form can show the fabric’s changing light response. The usable width is 141 cm, offering practical coverage for furniture applications. No vertical or horizontal pattern repeat is supplied, so there is no motif to align.

How to use it

Use Glacier on a statement armchair, sofa or upholstered headboard where its cool blue-grey tone can temper warm timber, pale stone and brushed metal. Keep surrounding textiles tactile but restrained so the velvet’s icy surface remains the focus.

A cool, pale velvet that brings soft colour and a quietly polished finish to upholstered seating.

Pairs well with

Performance Velvets Glacier is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. 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.
