Tango Velvet Tomato is a saturated warm red velvet with a smooth, plain face and a subtle directional shift in the pile. Its softly varied surface gives the colour depth rather than a flat, painted appearance.

About this fabric

The tomato-red shade reads warm and vivid, with deeper passages appearing where the velvet nap changes direction across the surface. There is no printed motif: the interest comes from the close, soft-looking pile and gentle tonal variation visible in the swatch. Made from 71% polyester, 17% acrylic and 12% cotton, the fabric is approximately 140cm wide. It is rated for Contract and General Domestic use, with usage specified for curtains and fixed upholstery.

How to use it

Use this warm tomato red to bring a confident focal colour to an armchair, banquette or upholstered headboard, or carry it through full-length curtains for a more enveloping scheme. Balance the saturated velvet with warm neutrals, dark timber or aged brass.

A rich tomato-red velvet for fixed upholstery and curtains, with a softly light-catching pile.

Pairs well with

Tango Velvet Tomato 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.
