Gramercy Verde

Timeless Velvets Velvet

Gramercy Verde is a deep moss-green velvet with a softly clouded surface that shifts between near-black forest tones and lighter olive-green highlights. Its low-contrast shading gives the plain cloth a quietly dimensional, luxurious appearance.

About this fabric

Catalogued as Velvet, Gramercy Verde has a visibly dense, plush nap that catches the light in irregular, smoky patches. The colour sits in a cool, shadowed moss-green range, with darker areas creating depth across the surface rather than a flat single tone. No performance features are noted for this fabric, so its strongest impression comes from the rich tactile finish and nuanced colour. The absence of a visible motif makes the changing nap the defining design detail.

How to use it

Use Gramercy Verde on a statement armchair, sofa or upholstered headboard where its dark moss tone can read as an earthy, sophisticated accent. Balance the depth of the green with warm timber, aged brass or softly coloured neutrals.

Use this deep, shadowed green velvet to bring plush depth to sofas, headboards or occasional chairs.

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.
