London Velvet Fabric - Petrol

London Velvet in Petrol has a plush, dense pile that feels beautifully soft under the hand, with a subtle matte finish that keeps it elegant and understated. The 290 gsm weight strikes the perfect balance - substantial enough to use confidently on upholstery, cushions, or curtains, yet supple enough to drape for garments such as jackets, skirts, or dresses.

Its durability is impressive: with a 50,000 Martindale rub score, this velvet will withstand everyday use without losing its softness or luxurious feel. The rich petrol colour adds depth and versatility, making it a great choice for contemporary interiors, moody soft furnishings, or statement clothing pieces.

Whether you’re updating your living space or creating a standout wardrobe piece, this velvet combines comfort, style, and lasting quality in one fabric.
