Performance Velvets Magenta

Performance Velvet VelvetHAF0562-14

Performance Velvets Magenta has a saturated berry-magenta tone and a smooth plush pile that shifts visibly as the light moves across the surface. Its close, plain texture gives the colour a deep, velvety depth rather than a printed effect.

About this fabric

This is a substantial velvet weighing 540 gsm, with a 141 cm usable width suited to upholstery projects. The dense, even surface appears plain at close range, while the directional pile creates lighter and darker bands across the draped swatch. In this Magenta colourway, the shade reads as a deep, cool-leaning berry pink with a dramatic, softly lustrous finish. There is no vertical or horizontal pattern repeat, so the colour remains uninterrupted across the cloth.

How to use it

Use this deep berry magenta on an occasional chair, sofa or headboard where its plush surface and shifting tonal highlights can become the focal point. Pair it with warm timber, smoked metal or quieter neutral upholstery to balance the saturated colour.

A rich, light-responsive magenta velvet for statement upholstery and softly tailored 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.
