About this fabric

Dorton Kingfisher from Sanderson’s Dorton Velvets collection is a velvet with a substantial 405 gsm weight and a usable width of 148 cm. The swatch shows a richly saturated kingfisher teal that sits between blue and green, with a muted depth that softens the brightness of the shade. Its plain, non-patterned surface and zero repeat make the colour and pile the focus, while the dense 102 threads per cm specification supports the fabric’s polished finish. This is a strong, tactile velvet with a refined look that feels tailored rather than ornate.

How to use it

Use this kingfisher teal on an armchair, banquette or headboard where the colour can hold its depth in daylight and lamplight. It also pairs well with walnut, brass and pale neutrals for a crisp, layered scheme.

Rich teal velvet with a clean, jewel-like finish for tailored upholstery or statement drapery.

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.
