Amalfi Amethyst is a deep, near-black plum with a rich amethyst undertone and a smooth, low-sheen finish. The swatch reads as a quietly luxurious plain, with a dense colour that softens rather than sparkles in the light.

About this fabric

This colourway from the Amalfi collection by J Brown is a plain design with a uniform, velvety-looking surface that appears smooth and tightly finished in the swatch image. The tone is a dark amethyst-plum, edged toward black, giving it a moody and refined character rather than a bright purple note. Made from 100% polyester and specified for contract use, it is a practical choice for schemes that need a deeper decorative colour with performance credentials. The 60,000 Martindale rating and supplied back coating to cigarette & match to BS5852 support use in demanding seating environments. Professional dry clean in situ is recommended, with further care guidance available in the pattern book.

How to use it

Use this shade on statement armchairs, banquettes or bedroom headboards where the dark plum can read sophisticated and cocooning. It pairs especially well with pale stone, walnut and brushed brass for contrast.

A rich dark plum that adds depth and drama to tailored seating or contract schemes.

Pairs well with

Amalfi Amethyst 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.
