About this fabric

This plain velvet is shown in a subdued Wedgwood blue, with a gentle blue-grey cast that keeps the colour calm rather than vivid. Its 420gsm weight and 144cm usable width give it a substantial presence for upholstery. The surface has a fine, even pile, while the changing direction of the fold creates darker bands and a soft, silvery highlight. With zero vertical and horizontal pattern repeat, the fabric has no motif to align across a project; the supplied construction is 71 threads per centimetre.

How to use it

Use this cool Wedgwood blue on a tailored armchair, sofa or upholstered headboard where its soft sheen can catch daylight. Pair it with chalky whites, pale timber and brushed metal for a quiet, blue-grey scheme.

Use this cool blue velvet to bring softly reflective depth to upholstered seating and headboards.

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.
