Icaria Teal

Icaria and Boho Velvets VelvetSAF0073-03

Icaria Teal shows a dark, moody teal velvet with a strong vertical striation that gives the surface real movement. The pile catches the light in irregular bands, revealing cooler green-blue highlights against a near-charcoal ground.

About this fabric

This velvet is from Sanderson’s Icaria and Boho Velvets collection and has a usable width of 140 cm, a weight of 570 gsm and 79 threads per cm, so it has the substantial feel expected of an upholstery cloth. The design reads as a layered, abstract strié, with narrow vertical lines and broken patches of pile creating a textured, almost weathered effect. In Icaria Teal, the colour sits between blue and green, but the overall impression is dark and saturated rather than bright, with the sheen lifting to a slightly brighter teal where the pile catches. The 70 cm horizontal repeat suggests a broad pattern rhythm that suits larger upholstered pieces and dramatic soft furnishings.

How to use it

Use Icaria Teal on a deep-buttoned sofa, a pair of accent chairs or full-length curtains where the pile can catch the light. It works especially well with walnut, brushed brass and warm neutrals, which balance the fabric’s cool, shadowy teal.

A rich teal velvet that brings depth and texture to statement seating or tailored drapes.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Icaria Teal without fighting it. Mixed across the houses we hold, which is the part a single supplier's book cannot do.

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.
