Orissa Velvet Pale Linen

Orissa Velvet Pale Linen pairs a softly taupe, pale-linen ground with ivory paisleys that appear gently luminous against the muted base. The velvet surface gives the colourway a quiet depth, while the scrolling motifs remain clearly defined across the swatch.

About this fabric

This substantial velvet weighs 639 gsm and has a 140 cm usable width, making it particularly well suited to upholstery. The visible pattern is a repeating paisley, with the cream-ivory outlines and internal tracery standing out softly from the warm pale taupe ground rather than creating a sharp contrast. Its vertical repeat is 40.5 cm and horizontal repeat is 35 cm, giving the medium-scale motifs a measured, orderly rhythm. At 145 threads per centimetre, the closely worked surface reads as dense and tactile, with the pile subtly catching the light across the linen-toned colourway.

How to use it

Use Pale Linen to upholster a sculptural sofa, occasional chair or padded headboard in a calm, warm-neutral scheme. Pair its pale taupe base with chalky ivory, natural timber and softly aged brass so the paisley detail adds pattern without overpowering the room.

Use this weighty velvet on an upholstered armchair, headboard or sofa where its pale taupe ground and ivory paisley can be seen clearly.

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.
