Name: Urbane Verde
Brand: Mark Alexander

Urbane Verde is a deep forest-green velvet with a quiet, almost shadowed appearance. Its subtly varied surface catches the light softly, revealing tonal depth rather than a pronounced pattern.

About this fabric

This colourway is catalogued as velvet, and the image shows a dense, plain surface with gentle nap variation across the dark green ground. The shade reads cool and deeply muted, shifting between near-black green and softer moss-like highlights as the surface catches the light. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification, so its defining character here is the luxurious velvet texture and atmospheric depth.

How to use it

Use Urbane Verde on a statement armchair, sofa or ottoman where its deep green tone can anchor a room without appearing bright or overtly decorative. Pair it with warm timber, aged brass or soft neutral upholstery to bring out the subtle tonal variation in its pile.

Use this deep forest green velvet to bring restrained depth and a softly atmospheric finish to upholstered seating.

Pairs well with

Urbane Verde 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.
