About this fabric

This plain velvet has no pattern repeat and presents an even, finely textured face rather than a motif. The 540gsm weight gives the cloth a substantial presence, making it particularly well suited to upholstery. In the swatch image, the short pile shifts from luminous golden yellow on the raised ridge to a deeper ochre-gold in the recessed folds. It has a 141cm usable width for planning upholstered panels and tailored applications.

How to use it

Use Nectar on a statement armchair, sofa or headboard where its warm golden tone can act as a confident focal colour. Pair it with walnut, aged brass and softened neutrals to balance the velvet’s saturated glow.

Use this warm nectar-gold velvet to bring plush depth and softly reflective colour to upholstered seating.

Pairs well with

Performance Velvets Nectar 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.
