This distinctive fabric is ever-changing, the look, colour and texture of velvet will change depending on the direction the fabric is brushed, the lighting in a room, and the wear-and-tear it has undertaken.
Each roll of fabric can have subtle variation in appearance and print translation.

CARE
You want to ensure Velvet is cared for and the pile is protected. You can do this by using your hand to brush the pile if creases are developing and gently vacuum if dust is forming in the pile. You should spot clean by dabbing to remove marks and avoid rubbing. Use light steam to pop out creases, never iron Velvet because you will flatten the pile. Our Velvet is made from high quality polyester to provide the most durable and luxurious fabric. Our Velvet can be delicate machine or hand washed, dry flat and you can dry clean.
Our care instructions are a general recommendation.
Can shrink up to 3% on the warp and weft of the fabric.
