Smooth Amethyst

Smooth Fabric

Smooth Amethyst is a near-solid, deep plum-purple cloth with a quiet, fine surface texture. In the swatch image, the dark tone stays largely even while faint shifts across the surface give it restrained depth.

About this fabric

The image shows a dense-looking fabric in a rich amethyst shade, sitting between deep purple and dark plum rather than a bright violet. Its softly uneven surface has a low-sheen appearance, with subtle tonal movement visible across the swatch as the light changes. The lack of a visible motif keeps the colour and texture as the main design features. No composition, width or performance specification has been supplied for this fabric.

How to use it

Use this cool, inky amethyst on a statement chair, sofa or headboard where its deep tone can anchor a room. Pair it with warm wood, aged brass or pale neutral upholstery to bring definition to the dark purple shade.

Its deep amethyst tone and quiet surface texture bring understated richness to upholstered seating and headboards.

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.
