Vintage Velvet Velvet196
Vintage Velvet Aubergine is a deep, moody velvet with a near-black purple cast and a subtle low sheen across the pile. The surface catches the light in soft, streaky highlights that give the plain colourway real depth.

About this fabric
This plain velvet reads as a very dark aubergine, with plum and blackened purple tones shifting across the nap as the light moves. The 100% polyester composition and 30,000 Martindale rating make it well suited to demanding contract interiors, while the supplied back coating to Cigarette & Match to BS5852 adds an important practical specification. Although it sits in a plain design style, the pile texture gives the colourway a softly striated appearance rather than a flat block of colour. Wipeable or professional dry clean in situ care helps keep the rich surface looking clean and even.
How to use it
Use this colourway on statement seating, banquettes or panelled headboards where the dark aubergine tone can feel enveloping rather than heavy. It pairs especially well with bronze, walnut and textured neutrals, which lift the velvet's inky depth.
Pair with brushed brass and dark timber for a rich, cocooning look.

Vintage Velvet Aubergine 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.
