Boka Velvet Ink/Zest

The house has discontinued this one. We are keeping the page so the link still works, but we can no longer order it. There are alternatives below, and if you have a cutting or a photograph we will help you match it.

Boka Velvet Ink/Zest brings a cool ink-blue framework to a tightly repeated geometric velvet. In the swatch, pale aqua and cream threads soften the vertical diamond bands, while zest notes punctuate the design.

About this fabric

The face is filled with narrow vertical bands of linked diamonds and zigzags, rather than a broad, open motif. Ink-blue lines sit alongside zest yellow-green accents and pale blue-grey and cream, giving this colourway a cool, crisp contrast with a lively flash of warmth. Its velvet construction is catalogued at 550gsm, and the supplied 90 threads-per-cm specification reflects the finely detailed surface visible in the swatch. With a 137cm usable width and a 5.5cm vertical by 11.4cm horizontal repeat, the compact geometry can be read consistently across upholstered panels.

How to use it

Use this cool Ink/Zest colourway on a statement chair, headboard or sofa, balancing its blue depth with warm ivory, pale timber and restrained brass. The zest accents also work well as a small echo in cushions or painted details.

Use the cool ink-blue ground and zest accents to add crisp colour and rhythm to upholstered seating.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Boka Velvet Ink/Zest without fighting it. 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.
