About this fabric

This Morris & Co. velvet weighs 416 gsm, giving the densely patterned cloth a substantial feel suited to upholstery. Its 38.5 cm vertical and 89.5 cm horizontal pattern repeats arrange curling leaves, pointed foliage and small flower heads into a continuous all-over composition. The cool indigo background brings depth, while the coral-pink leaves read softly warm rather than bright; cream blossoms and muted green details prevent the dark ground from feeling flat. At 57.7 threads per centimetre and a usable width of 135 cm, it offers a detailed surface for considered furniture projects.

How to use it

Use the Cosmo Pink/Indigo colourway on a reading chair, footstool or compact sofa where the deep blue ground can anchor a room. Pick up the coral leaves with warm clay or blush accents, and let the cream flowers sit alongside natural wood, aged brass and soft oatmeal upholstery.

Use this substantial floral velvet on a statement armchair, sofa or ottoman, balancing its indigo ground with warm timber and quiet neutrals.

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.
