About this fabric

This Morris & Co. velvet has a substantial 416 gsm weight and a 134 cm useable width, making it particularly suited to upholstered furniture. The design’s 93 cm vertical and 134 cm horizontal repeat creates a large-scale arrangement of peacocks, rabbits, curling leaves and flowering stems. In this Azure colourway, the cool blue-green ground gives the pattern depth, while muted olive, sage, parchment and russet details keep the wildlife imagery distinct. The dense composition reads as richly decorative rather than light or airy.

How to use it

Use Forest (Velvet) Azure on a statement armchair, ottoman or sofa in a room with warm timber and aged brass, allowing the deep teal ground to anchor the scheme. Pick up its olive foliage and russet accents in plain cushions or painted joinery without competing with the large repeat.

A weighty velvet for statement upholstery, where its deep teal ground and ornate wildlife repeat can be fully appreciated.

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.
