Bottle green is a deep, dark green with a hint of blue. It is used for sofas, armchairs and headboards where you want a dark colour that is warmer than black or grey. It goes well with brass, walnut and light walls.

Velour has a pile that reflects light differently depending on its direction. That gives the soft sheen, but it also means every piece must be cut the same way. Then the colour stays even from side to side.

At 140,000 Martindale the abrasion resistance is far above what is usually considered enough for furniture in daily home use, around 30,000. The pilling test gives grade 5, the top of the scale, so the surface stays neat in normal use.

Upholsterers and smaller furniture makers use the fabric for new pieces and for re-covering, and interior shops stock it as a standard line. All colours share the same specifications, so they can be mixed across a collection. Dark and strong colours can transfer to light fabrics, especially when damp, so keep that in mind if the velour will sit against light cushions or throws.

Keep the velour neat with a soft brush that follows the pile. Treat stains with a lightly dampened cloth, and always test on a spot that does not show first.
