About this fabric

This colourway reads as a saturated pumpkin orange with golden ochre undertones, so it feels warm rather than red or terracotta. The velvet surface shows the characteristic directional nap, creating subtle shifts from lighter gleam to deeper shadow across the swatch. It is made from 100% polyester and specified for contract use, with a Martindale rating of 30,000 for dependable wear. It is supplied back coated to Cigarette & Match to BS5852, and can be wiped or professionally dry cleaned in situ, with further care instructions available in the pattern book.

How to use it

Use this shade on an occasional chair, ottoman or banquette to add a confident burst of colour without losing a tailored feel. It pairs well with walnut, tan leather and muted olive accents, where the golden warmth can really stand out.

A warm pumpkin velvet that brings depth and glow to tailored seating.

Vintage Velvet Pumpkin 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.
