{"product_id":"gp-and-j-baker-palace-tapestry-velvet","title":"GP \u0026 J Baker | Palace Tapestry Velvet","description":"\u003cp\u003ePalace Tapestry Velvet takes the verdure scenic from Royal Court, GP \u0026amp; J Baker's collection drawn from the archive of designs made for royal residences, and prints it on a cotton-rich velvet. The pile softens the drawing and throws the colour about, so the scene reads less as a picture and more as a worn hanging, which is exactly the effect you want from a tapestry design. The repeat is large, 73 centimetres vertically by 68 horizontally, and the cloth has the weight and drape that a velvet gives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComposition is 83 per cent cotton and 17 per cent polyester, 136 centimetres wide, with a 73 centimetre vertical and 68 centimetre horizontal repeat. It is rated for curtains, loose and fixed upholstery and bedspreads. There is one colourway, Royal Green, a deep foliage green that goes almost black in the shadows of the pile and lifts under a lamp. In a dark room it behaves like a colour; in a light one it behaves like a texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe would hang this as full-length curtains in a dining room or a library, where the pile catches candle and lamplight. It is also very good as a pair of door curtains, and on the back of a single large armchair with a plain velvet on the seat. Keep the rest of the room quiet and let the cloth be the event. Sold by the half metre; order a sample to see it in your own light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVelvet has a direction, so agree the pile with your maker before cutting and mark every piece; run the pile down for curtains and up on seating where you want depth of colour. Allow a full repeat per drop. Do not steam the face, press from the back over a pile board, and hang the curtains for a fortnight before final hemming so the weight settles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eComposition:\u003c\/strong\u003e 83% cotton, 17% polyester\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 136 cm (53.4 in)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePattern repeat:\u003c\/strong\u003e 73 cm vertical, 68 cm horizontal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCare:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dry clean professionally; do not wash, bleach or iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCollection:\u003c\/strong\u003e Royal Court, GP \u0026amp; J Baker\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColourways:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 (Royal Green)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GP \u0026 J Baker","offers":[{"title":"Royal Green","offer_id":58050958033278,"sku":"BP11102.1","price":94.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Sample - Royal Green","offer_id":58050958066046,"sku":"SAMPLE-BP11102.1","price":2.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/9880\/0766\/files\/BP11102_1.png?v=1789683040","url":"https:\/\/shop.tobiasoliverinteriors.com\/products\/gp-and-j-baker-palace-tapestry-velvet","provider":"Tobias Oliver","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
