About this fabric

The close, even pile gives this 140cm-wide velvet a smooth, tactile finish, with low light catching the surface rather than creating a pronounced sheen. Its dark neutral tone sits between charcoal grey and muted taupe, giving the colourway a grounded, enveloping feel. Made from 12% cotton, 17% acrylic and 71% polyester, it is specified for curtains and fixed upholstery in Contract and General Domestic settings. Care is listed as Delicate Wash at 30°C or Dry Clean.

How to use it

Use Tango Velvet Rock on a statement armchair, sofa or headboard where its deep warm grey can add visual weight without the starkness of black. Pair it with chalky neutrals, smoked timber and brushed metal, or use it for curtains to reinforce a cocooning scheme.

A deep warm-grey velvet for tailored upholstery, with enough softness for coordinating curtains.

Pairs well with

Tango Velvet Rock 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.
