Color Waves

Not sure about the color? We highly recommend ordering a sample swatch first to see the color and fabric in person. Colors may vary slightly due to screen settings and dye lots. Returns are accepted in accordance with our return policy and are subject to applicable restocking fees.

Dye Lot Variations

A Note About Dye Lots Dye lots may vary slightly from order to order. As one fabric roll sells out and a new roll is opened, subtle color variations may occur. If matching a specific shade is important, we recommend ordering a sample swatch to view our current dye lot before placing your order.

Full Piece and/or Splits

Full Pieces & Splits

We always do our best to provide your order in one continuous piece whenever possible. However, as fabric rolls are completed or depending on how they arrive from the mill, an order may occasionally include more than one piece. Some mill-direct rolls may also contain splits within the roll.

For this reason, we cannot guarantee one continuous piece. If continuous yardage is important for your project, please contact our team before ordering so we can check availability for you.

Frequently asked questions

How do I even handle 118-inch-wide fabric?

Like the professionals do: with a clean floor and a helper. At 118 inches wide, this Fire Retardant Drapery Velvet covers nearly 10 feet per span — a full stage wall or ballroom drape with zero vertical seams, which is the entire point. Unroll it on a clean surface (velvet pile picks up everything), cut with the pile running one direction, and hang with enough fullness for the folds to read. It's FR-treated and passes NFPA 701 and California Title 19, so it clears venue fire codes — keep the cert paperwork with your install kit.

Will washing affect the fire retardant treatment?

Possibly — treat the FR as a finish to protect. The listing describes this velvet as fire retardant treated (a treatment, not an inherent fiber property) passing NFPA 701 and CA Title 19. Treated FR can diminish with repeated laundering, so we'd avoid washing it unless necessary — shake out dust, spot clean, and let drapes air. If your venue requires documented compliance, keep the treatment certificate current and re-treat on the manufacturer's schedule rather than assuming a wash leaves it intact.
