About this fabric

The swatch shows a saturated red with warm burgundy and berry-brown undertones, while the velvet pile creates a gentle tonal change across the surface. At approximately 140cm wide, it is specified for curtains and fixed upholstery, making it suitable for both window treatments and upholstered pieces. The composition is 71% polyester, 17% acrylic and 12% cotton, with Contract and General Domestic upholstery grades. Care is listed as Delicate Wash at 30°C or dry clean.

How to use it

Use this deep rhubarb red on a statement armchair, banquette or headboard, then repeat the warm berry tone in cushions or artwork. As curtains, its velvety surface will add colour depth around neutral stone, cream or warm timber schemes.

Use this deep rhubarb velvet to bring warm, saturated colour to upholstered seating or full-length curtains.

Pairs well with

Tango Velvet Rhubarb 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.
