About this fabric

Catalogued as a Velvet, Urbane Blueberry has a close, even surface with a softly brushed nap and no visible printed motif. The colour reads as a dark blueberry blue, deepening towards charcoal in the shaded areas while revealing muted teal notes where the pile catches the light. This low-key colourway gives upholstered forms a quiet, luxe presence rather than a bright or high-contrast effect. No performance features or further specification data are supplied for this fabric.

How to use it

Use Urbane Blueberry on a sofa, headboard or occasional chair where its cool, near-black blue can anchor a room. Pair it with warm timber, aged brass or pale neutrals to bring out the muted teal glints in its surface.

A shadowy blueberry velvet that brings depth and quiet richness to upholstered seating.

Urbane Blueberry 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.
