Orkney Plum
Orkney Boucle Fabric
Orkney Plum is a richly shaded, near-black plum bouclé with a softly irregular surface. Its deep colour gives the swatch a moody, enveloping presence, while subtle tonal variation keeps it from appearing flat.

About this fabric
The visible weave is dense and nubby, with small flecks of plum, aubergine and shadowed purple creating a softly mottled finish. Light catches the raised bouclé fibres in scattered highlights, revealing texture without introducing a separate pattern. This substantial-looking surface reads particularly well for upholstered furniture, where its dark tone can give a chair, headboard or sofa a grounded, cocooning feel. No performance features or further specification data are noted for this exact fabric, so project suitability should be confirmed for the intended use.
How to use it
Pair Orkney Plum with smoked timber, aged brass and warm neutrals to balance its cool, deep purple tone. It would make a dramatic upholstery choice for a reading chair, banquette or compact sofa in a low-lit room.
Use this deep plum bouclé to bring rich, tactile depth to upholstered seating and occasional pieces.

Pairs well with
Orkney Plum 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.
