About this fabric

The catalogue identifies Frieda Tan as a velvet, and the image shows a smooth, closely woven pile with no visible motif or pattern. Its warm tan-brown tone sits between caramel and softened ochre, reading rich rather than pale or sandy. Light moves gently across the pile, creating subtle tonal variation instead of a sharp contrast. No performance features are noted for this fabric.

How to use it

Use Frieda Tan on a sofa, armchair or padded headboard where its warm caramel-brown tone can add depth without becoming visually heavy. Pair it with creamy neutrals, aged timber and muted brass to reinforce the velvet’s softly luxe character.

Use this warm tan velvet to bring softly polished depth to upholstered seating and occasional pieces.

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.
