About this fabric

This fabric is catalogued as Velvet and comes from Mark Alexander’s Timeless Velvets collection. In the swatch, the burnt orange shade reads warm and earthy, with enough depth to feel refined rather than bright or citrus-toned. A short, softly directional nap creates gentle changes in tone as the surface catches the light. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification for this fabric.

How to use it

Pair this deep burnt orange with tobacco leather, dark timber and warm neutrals for a layered, enveloping scheme. Its saturated tone is especially effective on a statement armchair, sofa or upholstered headboard.

Use this rich burnt orange velvet to bring warmth and depth to upholstered seating, headboards or occasional furniture.

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.
