About this fabric

This catalogued velvet is presented in a richly earthy ochre brown, sitting between antique gold and warm umber. Its surface is visibly clouded and irregular, with tonal variation that prevents the colour from reading as flat. The velvet nap catches the light in scattered, softly brighter patches, creating a plush and subtly atmospheric finish rather than a defined motif. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification.

How to use it

Use Gramercy Ochre on a statement armchair, sofa or headboard where its warm golden-brown tone can anchor a room. Pair it with dark timber, aged brass and muted olive or tobacco shades to echo the depth within its mottled surface.

A richly tactile ochre velvet that brings warm, softly shifting depth to upholstered seating.

Gramercy Ochre 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.
