Dawn Chorus Noir Velvet Fabric offers a striking take on classic Chinoiserie, with exotic birds fluttering amongst lush botanical blooms and leafy branches. Set against a rich charcoal velvet ground, the intricate design features coral, blush pink, and soft jade tones that shimmer delicately under light, adding depth and movement to the densely layered composition. The result is an immersive, maximalist print with a refined, vintage spirit—ideal for adding drama and elegance to curtains, upholstery, or statement soft furnishings.
Available in three flame-retardant options: None FR for residential use in curtains and cushions, Standard FR for domestic upholstery and commercial drapery (BS 5852:1), and Crib 5 for contract and hospitality upholstery projects (BS 5852:2006 Clause 11). This designer velvet fabric balances luxurious texture with practical versatility across residential and commercial interiors.
Pile direction: all pieces must be cut in the same direction or they will reflect light differently and read as two colours.
Shading: velvet naturally appears lighter or darker depending on your viewing angle. This is inherent to the fabric, not a fault.
Grinning: digital printing sits on the pile surface. Stretching over a tight frame can reveal the base cloth beneath. A natural characteristic, not a fault.
Upholstery projects: please consult your maker before ordering to confirm suitability, quantity and cutting plan.

FABRIC — Delivery & Returns
£13 UK delivery. We print and cut every length ourselves, Monday to Thursday, within 4 working days, then dispatch it tracked for next-working-day delivery. Delivery to the Scottish Highlands, offshore islands and some remote postcodes may take a little longer, and any surcharge is calculated and shown at checkout.
International delivery takes 2 to 10 working days, sent tracked and Delivery Duty Paid, so all taxes and duties are included in the price you pay with no surprise charges on arrival.
Every length is cut and finished to order, so fabric cannot be returned or exchanged unless faulty. We always recommend ordering a sample first. Anything faulty or damaged, tell us within 14 days of delivery with clear photographs and we'll arrange a replacement or full refund at no cost.
Please inspect your fabric fully before cutting or making, as we can't accept claims after use. Full delivery and returns details
