About this fabric

This 416 gsm velvet is suited to upholstery, with a usable width of 134 cm and a substantial, tactile handle suggested by the close, plush-looking surface. The design repeats every 35 cm vertically and 44.5 cm horizontally, arranging cream flower heads among olive, moss and darker green foliage. Small blue accents punctuate the pattern without disturbing its predominantly earthy palette. In the deeper areas of the ground, the green reads almost woodland-dark, while the pale blooms remain bright and clearly defined.

How to use it

Use Midnight Fields on a statement armchair, footstool or sofa where its deep olive tone can anchor warm timber, aged brass and natural linen. Pick up the cream flowers with plain cushions or trim, while the small blue details offer a restrained accent for painted furniture or accessories.

A richly patterned olive velvet that brings Morris-inspired botanical detail and depth to upholstered seating.

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.
