Sunflower Caffoy Velvet Sussex Rush

Sunflower Caffoy Velvet Sussex Rush has a richly burnished ochre-gold ground, covered with an intricate, symmetrical floral damask. Its soft velvet surface catches the light unevenly, giving the warm shade a deeper brown dimension.

About this fabric

This Morris & Co. velvet has a substantial 695gsm weight and a usable width of 134.5cm, making it particularly well suited to upholstery. The woven design combines scrolling foliage, stylised flowers and medallion-like forms in a 66.5cm vertical by 67cm horizontal repeat. In this colourway, sunflower gold is tempered with tobacco and brown shading, so the ornate pattern reads quietly rather than brightly. The dense surface and gentle pile variation add a tactile, softly reflective finish to the detailed motif.

How to use it

Use Sunflower Caffoy on a reading chair, sofa or footstool where its warm ochre-gold tone can sit alongside walnut, russet leather, deep olive or aged brass. The near-brown shading helps the velvet feel grounded in rooms with traditional or richly layered schemes.

Use this warm ochre-gold velvet to bring depth to traditional upholstery, especially against walnut, dark stained timber or aged brass.

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.
