Faraday Velvet Aphrodite

Sanderson x Giles Deacon Faraday Velvets VelvetSAF0423-04

Faraday Velvet Aphrodite shows a neat interlocking geometric pattern with a velvety pile that catches the light softly. In this colourway, the surface reads as a pale pistachio with a cool, airy freshness.

About this fabric

This velvet has a substantial handle at 548gsm, making it feel weighty and supportive for upholstery. The design repeats in a 10.3 cm vertical and 17.5 cm horizontal pattern, creating a compact lattice that stays crisp across the cloth. Visually, the pile gives the green tone a gentle sheen, so the pale shade looks slightly warmer or cooler as the light moves across it. At 137 cm wide and with 175 threads per cm, it presents as a tightly made decorative upholstery velvet with a refined finish.

How to use it

Use this soft green on a sculptural armchair, ottoman or bedroom headboard where the small-scale geometry can be read up close. It pairs well with light oak, chalky paint colours and brushed brass for a fresh, tailored look.

A fresh pistachio velvet that lifts statement chairs and tailored banquettes without feeling too bright.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Faraday Velvet Aphrodite 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.
