About this fabric

The close-up shows a plain velvet surface rather than a printed motif, with a dense-looking pile and a smooth, tactile nap. Its warm olive-brown tone has a softly muted quality, while the gathered folds reveal lighter bronze highlights and deep chocolate-brown recesses. The image shows the cloth falling in substantial, fluid folds, making upholstery the most natural application. No additional composition, width, rub-test or performance specification has been supplied for this colourway.

How to use it

Use Lovely Burnish on a deep-buttoned sofa, occasional chair or ottoman where its warm olive-brown tone can anchor a room of aged timber, antique brass and softly shaded neutrals. Directional light will emphasise the velvet's changing bronze and brown highlights.

A plush, burnished brown-olive velvet that brings depth and softly shifting highlights to upholstered seating.

Lovely Burnish is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. 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.
