About this fabric

The dense velvet has a smooth, finely textured face and a subdued sheen that is especially visible along the raised fold in the swatch. At 540 gsm, it has a substantial handle well suited to upholstery. The usable width is 141 cm, and both the vertical and horizontal pattern repeats are 0 cm, confirming a plain, non-repeating surface.

How to use it

Use this cool slate-grey shade on a sofa, headboard or occasional chair where its depth can anchor a neutral room. Pair it with pale stone, crisp white or brushed metal accents to draw out the velvet’s silvery fold highlights.

A dense slate-grey velvet with a soft directional sheen that adds depth to 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.
