About this fabric

The fabric appears as a dense, even velvet in a muted hazel-taupe colour, sitting between soft brown and warm grey. Fine changes in the pile catch the light across the surface, giving the otherwise plain ground a softly mottled, dimensional appearance. The restrained colour and plush texture give this Mark Alexander Timeless Velvets design a refined, quietly luxurious character. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Use Madison Hazel on a sofa, armchair or footstool where its warm taupe-brown tone can soften cooler stone, cream and charcoal schemes. Pair it with aged timber and brushed metal for a composed, tactile interior.

A warm hazel-taupe velvet that brings softly dimensional colour and a polished finish to upholstered seating.

Madison Hazel 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.
